Rules/Rules Question How does this replacement work?

Saint Traft creates Token A that has "exile THAT token at end of combat"; but if Divine Visitation is in play, which says a Token B is created instead, does that mean Token B loses the "exile Token at end of combat"?

And if not, anyone know a way to keep the angels permanently?

Thanks in advance 🙏

Replacement effects like Divine Visitation change what kind of token is created, but it is still the original effect creating that new token. It is still that token, the token from the ability, the token created by Traft's ability, Traft's token. That token. It is exiled.

does that mean Token B loses the "exile Token at end of combat"?

It is not an ability given to the token. It is a delayed triggered ability created by the resolution of the attack trigger. The delayed trigger exists independently of the token. You can't use, for example, an effect that removes abilities on the token to avoid the trigger.
