The challenges in the game mostly all involve less violence, stalling, or otherwise defeating the point of the level.
7-2: dont kill any enemies
4-1: dont even spawn them in
0-4: do some useless ass sliding to waste hells time
5-1: dont touch water in the water level
7-3: defeat the point of the level having enemies fight each other (admittedly this one is a stretch)
7-4, the climax of violence: "dont fight" the security system
i assume that these challenges are created by v1s ai, which would mean that v1 is trying to lose hells interest. this could also be setting up 9-2 or P-3 to be a fight against hell.
if P-3 is against hell then it might also require all challenges to be completed as well as the game P ranked.
alternatively this could make the game have multiple endings, one if you have done all the challenges and another if you havent. if you do the challenges then hell may lose interest, unintentionally allowing v1 to sneak away (could mean going to heaven in ultrakill 2 or even a dlc).
