Arrogant, are we? I mean, to be certain about a fictional universe's reality when you have nothing to do with constructing that reality shows an impressive level of unwarranted self-confidence.

Let's look at it this way: If (and this is a BIG if) some dormant bit of Amber's soul was wrapped up with Pyrrha's

Not a particularly big "if" given the whole point of the soul transfer was to put Amber's soul in Pyrrha's body and it was literally happening when Cinder interrupted it.

why wouldn't it die with her? Why would it drag her down to a corpse that was injured in a way that no life support conceivable short of literal demi-god level magic could possible save or even slow the process of its death?

The soul returning to its body after the body is revived is not exactly an outlandish prospect.

And even if that somehow did work, against all logic and with no canon basis for it

Of course there is no canon basis for it, as transferring a soul into another living person is itself canonically unprecedented and directly acknowledged in-universe as something that could have unpredictable results.

she would still be in a heavily injured body that hadn't moved for months, possibly years. And so she'd have to drag this heavily injured body Boosted Aura healing factor.

(while being incredibly disorineted by the fact that she was freakin' dead and the fact that she somehow has two souls that are probably not very happy at their proximity to each other)

Desire to survive can do a great job at getting someone fixed and focused regardless of mental anguish.

up a straight ruined elevator shaft

Pyrrha's Semblance would not make that a difficult obstacle and it would make sense for Ambyrrha to have that Semblance given it is a product of one's Aura a.k.a. soul.

to crawl through an abandoned hellscape of monstrosities whose sole purpose, regardless of confusion or fear, (something things without souls wouldn't even be able to feel) is to seek out and destroy all life. And I don't know about you, but I feel like if I got dragged back to life after getting shot multiple times by arrows and failing miserably at the one job I'd assigned for myself, I'd probably be feeling some pretty negative emotions, you know, those things that draw the Grimm in like chum to a bunch of hungry sharks. TL;DR: On the off chance that Pyrrha DID somehow come back in this completely ridiculous way, she'd be screwed. Heavily, because despite the "confused and frightened" status of the Grimm, she'd still be in the epicenter of the horde, weaponless and alone. This is all merely you insisting a super-powered warrior trained in combating the Grimm, technically two such warriors in one body, would somehow not be able to just escape the Grimm because it is too hard or something. Personally, aside from that Grimm dragon, we haven't seen anything that warrants the kind of dire opinions you are offering. When a freshman student on his first day can kill a giant two-headed snake Grimm with essentially his bare hands, the lack of faith you put in this theoretical fusion of two far more experienced fighters is rather misguided.

I'm not attached to it at all. Certainly, it is an interesting and appealing theory to me, but why shouldn't it be? You may be wrongly interpreting my annoyance with shoddy rebuttals as attachment.

he actually also tried arguing this theory was possibly easier for Amber than it was for Qrow to retrieve Ruby based on the fact Qrow had to fight his way there as well as fight his way out. just drop it.

You act as if it is unreasonable to suggest it might be easier for someone to merely escape from an area when they have no time limit, no set destination, and don't have to care for anyone else, rather than try to reach a specific high point in the epicenter of a monster horde in time to prevent someone from being killed and then lug said person all the way back through said horde. That's what I am talking about with that whole "shoddy rebuttals" comment.
