1) I wouldn't say so, because in DMC 1, weapons are not souls of demons. In other words, you do not have to kill Alastor and Ifrit to get these weapons. In DMC 3, all weapons were soul-binded (If it's OK to say so)
3) Actually, no. In order to shut (do not open) portal to the Demon World, the amulets had to be separated. Sparda used FE to seal "demonic entities". In DMC 3, they all went out from Hell, so FE lost its purpose.
4)If he had a soul. By the way, it seems strange to me that when Vergil picked up FE and had his amulet, he could DT and inflict some impressive damage. Why Dante's variety of Force Edge is so weak and without DT?
1. You know the Viewtiful Joe games/show? There's an anti-hero electrical demon called Alastor, which in one of the Viewtiful Joe games, confirms that he's the Alastor sword that Dante found and uses. (Dante and other DMC characters appear in some of the Viewtiful Joe games)
He freed himself from his sword form and, being angry at Dante for "mistreating" him and abandoning him in DMC2, wants to see if he should really be calling Dante "master" in a quick fight. Alastor loses, and admits that Dante is indeed his master.
Alastor also has some of the same moves Dante gets for for him in DMC1, such as Round Trip, Stinger, Air Raid, Vortex, and Air Hike. And when he transforms, he looks strikingly similar to Dante's Alastor Devil Trigger.
Hideki Kamiya, the guy behind Devil May Cry also made Viewtiful Joe, so it's most likely canon. So I feel it's safe to assume that Alastor and Ifrit were indeed demons previous to Dante getting them.
Alstor in his humanoid form.
3. I tried to make it sound plausible, lol.
4. Another of DMC's legendary plot holes...

I didn't feel like reading all 3 pages of the topic, so if I say something that's already been discussed then sorry, but
Sparda couldn't become human by sealing his powers away. There was no human blood in him to take over. If Beowulf or Cerberus sealed their powers away, would they become human too? No. When he sealed his powers away, he died. The 2000 years thing is a plot hole that Capcom has failed to explain in any of the DMCs. If the war happened 2,000 years ago, Dante & Vergil would be 2,000 years old. Unless Eva got it on with ForceEdge somehow... ew...
Another plot hole is them calling the place Force Edge is at the "Demon Realm". If it's the Demon Realm, where's the Demons? Why haven't any of the demons taken Force Edge? Why didn't any of them go through the portal Arkham opened? I mean, with the lust for power most demons have, something like Force Edge would make them practically orgasmic. And I don't think a Devil stuck in the "Demon Realm" would miss a chance to enter the Human world.
The plot holes are the reason why Capcom needs to make DMC5 all about Sparda, and the war. They could explain all the plotholes, show what the great Legendary Dark Knight Sparda was really like, and make alot of money.
It doesn't sound like you're agreeing or disagreeing with me, but you makes some good points and I agree with you.
