 If there is no mapping from the input to H(D,D) to the behavior
of D(D) then H is not even being asked about the behavior of D(D).
H has no obligation to answer questions *THAT IT IS NOT BEING ASKED*

 The halting problem specification does not say that a halt decider
can be asked questions.

 *It assumes that you already know that*

What assumes? Why would it assume anything about me?

In computability theory and computational complexity theory, a
decision problem is a computational problem that can be posed
as a yes–no question of the input values.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_problem

That's true. But a decider cannot be asked a question. Whenever a
decider is run it answers the question it is made to answer. The
input to the decider is a part of the question but is not itself
a question.
However, every decision problem can be presented differently,
whithout posing a qeustion.
