Yes, the whole way in which Morpheus defeated Azazel seemed a bit too easy - there's some hand-waving about him having great power at the heart of the Dreaming, but he doesn't seem to do anything special apart from sprinkling some of his dust to track down Choronzon and Nada. On th eother hand, I have to say that, although I was expecting something far more complex and involved, Lucifer's decision was indeed the most devious, unexpected action he could take at that point. I know I'd do the same if I had to be incharge of aplace like that!
