If you read that passage beyond just the sentence that includes the highlighted phrase, I would be very surprised that you'd be so certain of your position. It can be a bit dense, because that book includes plenty of actions by those in the Eastern Churches (and Emperors' attempts to force Popes to go along with eastern positions), but I'll note some of the passages from your own citation, regarding the decisions of the Popes (that is, the Bishops of Rome):
"It is true that the power to bind and to loose had been delegated only as to things on earth, and so Gelasius I decided, saying that the Church had no authority to determine as to the condition of those who had already passed away, and in 495, a Roman synod confirmed his decision emphatically."
"Leo I in 432 had already taken the same position, alleging that, for the dead, God had already passed His judgment, which the Church could not subsequently modify."

The entire point of excommunication is as an encouragement to repentance, and the dead can't repent.
Also, your appeal to modern positions is groundless, given that you're basing the only remotely cogent argument you've made on a book from 1883.
Words have meanings, and excommunication, anathematization, deeming something heretical, and others mean different things. Particularly in a Church with a millennia-long history of jurisprudence.
Seriously? You’re citing wikipedia as your source, on the validity of the phrasing ‘effectively excommunicated.’ Also, this is not a philosopher friend, but a professor of philosophy who has little to no connection to me. You citing wikipedia to trump his thoroughly resourced assessment is less than convincing, to put it mildly.
As to the point of the Condemnations of Paris specifically, I'd again ask you to listen to the podcast episode where Professor Adamson discusses this exact topic.
