Why not just focus on telling people how they can be saved rather than trying to evaluate who is/is not saved?

Because salvation is a serious matter and we should determine what false doctrine might prevent it.
Believing in the trinity is a choice! Since you don't believe in free will choices, your question is obviously a trick question and I'm not playing!! In your soteriology if God selects one for salvation He will make you believe in the trinity!!
or is it if you miss the very nature of God, have a fake One?
For Oneness pentacostals, and those holding to Modualism do not have real God, correct?

I don't agree. The bible never says that a person has to understand the Godhead to be saved. It takes repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, period.

"Let not conscience make you linger,
Not of fitness fondly dream;
All the fitness He requireth
Is to feel your need of Him."
COME, YE SINNERS, POOR AND NEEDY
United Pentecostal Church modualists I would not be so sure of. Their form of modaulism comes with a whole host of extra Biblical requirements for salvation such as their formula for baptism and requirement that you be baptized in their church tradition alone much like the Church of Christ cultists. Their "jesus" is not my Jesus. Same goes for the Mormons and JW's. Their Jesus is patently false and couldn't save a flea from hell. But, others modualist I think are just trying to make the Trinity fit into a logical box which leads them into making an error. They misread the Trinity but not the finished work of Jesus on the cross. Their Jesus is my Jesus.
In your soteriology God selects one for salvation so there is no false doctrine that can resist divine regeneration, so why would you worry about it?
