Why would the two officers have to GO INTO his cell/cage to feed him?
Seeing as he was so dangerous, wouldn't sliding the tray through an opening be a much safer way to do this?

shareHa, true. Given the almost insane level of security and caution around him, that was a laughable plot device.
shareDefinitely a lame plot device. If they knew just how dangerous Lecter was, and by the level of security that they employed, they seemed to know, they would have sent three or four officers in.
Two would go inside his cage to feed him, two would stand outside the cage with rifles aimed at him to discourage any shenanigans on Lecter's part.
Actually you wouldn't want someone like me holding a rifle on Dr. Lecter. One false move or twitch from him and I'd have no problem giving him a lead haircut! Evil garbage like that doesn't need to be kept alive at the taxpayer's expense no matter how suave and "charming" it tries to be.
