Usually once they get secondary roots, the larger the root system is usually better. I would say the props you have need to marinate longer. From the way it looks, the props will gain their secondary roots soon. I attached a photo of secondary roots for reference

I think that’s perfectly ready to go in soil but I’ve only propped and planted that plant like 10 times lol

The best way I’ve found to prevent damaging secondary roots is to take a nursery pot, tape any drainage holes closed, fill about 3/4 full with soil and the rest with water. You want it to be super watery!! Stick the prop in, and take off the tape, to let the water drain. Top off with some more soil and boom! Fits like a glove 😌 Happy Planting! 🩷
