I don't think that is the shell game.  PO really /has/ an H (it's
trivial to do for this one case) that correctly determines that P(P)
*would* never stop running *unless* aborted.  He knows and accepts that
P(P) actually does stop.  The wrong answer is justified by what would
happen if H (and hence a different P) where not what they actually are.

You seem to like this quote. Do you agree with it?

The first half of the quote agrees that the Sisper approved
criteria has been met, thus unless professor Sipser is wrong
H is correct to reject D as non-halting.

Nope. Since you LIE about what Professor Sipser means by the first part, you are shown to be just a stupid liar.

No, Ben says that if you redefine the question, and are not talking about Halting any more, you can meet your requirements.

He said your ALTERED criteria had been met.

But Ben didn't say it was because of a "Correct Simulation".
Ben was willing to alter the definition of Simulatioin to your, while Professor Sipser didn't
This is just you playing word games.
Joining two sentences from different converstation that just use the same words is not a proof, but indicates that there may be a difference in meaning being used.
