In any case you diverged away form the whole point of this thread.
Richard is wrong when he says that there exists an H/D pair such
that D simulated by H ever reaches past its own line 03.

Yes, in the same way that you are wrong.  The above "C code" is garbage;
as already pointed out, it doesn't even compile.  So any talk of
"reaching line 3" or "matching" that "code" is vacuous nonsense.

Olcott is trying to stay at this point for several weeks now, but he does not succeed. The reason probably is, that it is already a few steps too far. First there must be agreement about the words and terms used in what he says. So, we should delay this subject and go back a few steps.
Before we can talk about this, first there must be 100% agreement about:

If needed we can write out the proof for this, starting from the axioms for natural numbers. That proof is well known.

But nobody here knows the proof for your assertion above, that it is a verified fact that it cannot reach past line 03. So, we would like to see that proof. Just the claim that it has been proven is not enough.

If you knew C will enough yourself you would comprehend
that my claim about:

This is a simple software engineering verified fact.

The proof of 2+3=5 is not 'Being a mathematician'.
You give the impression that you are clueless about how to prove it.

 If you understand them then the proof is easy if you
do not understand them then the proof is impossible.
 

It cannot be proved to anyone failing to comprehend arithmetic.

Since we understand C, that is not an excuse. It seems that you are looking for excuses to hide the fact that you have never seen such proof.

 Any H/D pair matching the above template where
D(D) is simulated by the same H(D,D) that it calls
cannot possibly reach past its own line 03.
 If you understand C and understand proofs then you
understand that a single counter-example would refute
my claim if one exists. You would also understand that
that when no such counter-example exists that would
prove that I am correct.
 So I ask you to do one of three things:
(a) Admit that I am correct
(b) Provide a single counter example
(c) Admit that you simply don't understand this.

Intentional deception certainly meets the requirement of
reckless disregard for the truth of defamation lawsuits.

I did, and you refuse to answer about it, proving you are just a pathological lying due to YOUR reckless disregard for the truth.
And, apparently you think I might have a case, as you aren't willing to accept the put up or snut up challange, as when you are shown wrong, your main weapon, claiming people haven't refuted you becomes an admission of lying.
