I proved otherwise. When the abort code is commented out then it keeps
repeating again and again, thus conclusively proving that is must be
aborted or HHH never halts.

But the abort is not commented out in the running code!

I modified the original code by commenting out the abort and it does
endlessly repeat just like HHH correctly predicted.

Yes, and that modification makes HHH not call itself

Not at all. It makes HHH stop aborting DDD.
So that HHH and DDD endlessly repeat.

but a different
program. You'd need to also comment out the outermost abort; then it
wouldn't halt, but if you change HHH to abort, you change all copies
of it at the same time (to keep the recursive call structure).
