They can pass through a solid object, yay, shame trying to do so will shred apart the inside of their body because that's generally what happens when an object attempts to go through another. one or the other gets torn up.

2-The soul part just doesn't make any sense. their aura doesn't seem to be any different when it's active, only their body is less easily perceived. the soul would be just as easily picked up by whatever sensors (or senses) happen to detect the presence and volume of aura. 1-Required Secondary Powers. We even have canon examples. Or have you ever thought of the many things that could and should have happened to Ruby everytime she used her Semblance? Super Speed actually requires a damn lot. Here, educate yourself.

She can pass through objects without ending up a mess in the process, but still get hurt and feel pain. Simple as that. If you can accept Ruby having Super Speed/turning into Multi-Petal Storm as a Semblance despite the problems that come with it, then you can accept this.

2-The soul part isn't meant to be 100% literal. I thought it was obvious in that aspect.

Besides, if her body is less easily perceived, then it still fits. Read again what Faint means.

And who cares whatever sensors can still detect her or not. If X guy is invisible yet can still be detected by heat sensor, is Invisibility not the correct term anymore? Nope, is still Invisibility.
