If HHH reports that DDD does not need to abort
DDD before HHH aborts DDD then HHH is a liar.

How can HHH "report" something while it is still running?

 If HHH is not a pure function it can have side effects while still
running. A side effect can "report".
 

But he keeps on insting that HHH *IS* a pure function, and that we are stupid if we forget that when he forgets to keep it in the description because HE is allowed to be sloppy, but we can't take benefit from that.
