A correct simulation of N instructions of DDD.
Irrelevant.
We are not interested in the simulation of only a few instructions, but in the simulation of the whole halting program, to determine its halting behaviour.
That is a pretty stupid requirement for non-halting inputs.
You don't even know what halting is yet.
