* It has been said that Dante had committed every one of the sins of the circles of hell, but exactly what did Dante do that would be him committing heresy or greed? he has definitely shown to have committed acts of lust, gluttony, anger, violence, fraud and treachery, but not quite anything to do with greed or heresy.

***Technically, the uncommitted don't even go into Hell, but remain on the shores of Acheron (a.k.a. the vestibule) for eternity, so it's even more appropriate that Pilate be there.

*** Dante is one of the few damned souls suitable to free Lucifer because unlike most, he has commited ''every'' one of the sins of the circles, meaning he has a place in each level of Hell, but he also believed he would be absolved. Attila, Alexander and such could have met the criteria as well, but only Dante had both the badassery and determination to actually ''reach'' Lucifer's prison.

** Who could call her out? The guy trying to save her? The angel? The thing is Beatrice did not have a presence until Purgatory/Paradiso in the original poem where she served as a guide (since Vergil cannot leave Inferno, given that he´s a heretic from the Age of Gods), so she was the obvious weakpoint of the plot.

** To be fair, this is actually in line with contemporary portrayals of Lucifer at the time. The devil was often portrayed as incompetent and only truly evil or foolish mortals would fall for his schemes. Beatrice was just that desperate for Dante’s safety.
Added DiffLines:
** Entering a bit of WMG territory here, but perhaps Lucifer’s formerly human subordinates had the sheer will to refuse to be part of the rest of the rabble of tormented souls. So, at some point, Marc Antony and Cleopatra died, but rather than become part of the scenery in torture, their combined Lust enabled them to exert power in their Circle of Hell. They’re still being tortured, of course, but they’re capable of moving around Hell and interact with others, so it’s a step up.
Added DiffLines:
** Perhaps it’s part of a bigger plan by God. Gabriel implies that Dante’s journey through Hell was part of a design; that God is moving pieces into play for an end that Dante himself can’t see. Hence, while Lucifer is trying to lure souls down to Hell to free him, Lancelot, Atilla, or Lucifer’s demons would get struck down by Angels if they actually made progress. Dante was permitted to break the chains, because it was part of God’s plan for Dante to do so. Presumably, the sequel would see further development of that plan.
