When halting is defined in the software engineering terms of

H always halts, and never runs out of stack space, because it is a decider. How does Infinite_Recursion2 run out of stack space, if H doesn't run out of stack space?

 Then increase the stack space until it doesn't run out. Turing machines can't run out of stack space unless you programmed them wrong.
