Which proves that HHH fails to make a correct
decision about DD's halting behaviour. All other
methods (direct execution,
simulation by a world class simulator, etc.) show
that DD halts. But HHH fails to see it. Everyone
with sufficient understanding of programming sees
that HHH is not correctly programmed when it
aborts one cycle before the simulation would end
normally.

The execution trace only shows that HHH is unable
to complete its simulation, because HHH is unable
to simulate itself.

It turns out that Olcott does not even understand
this simple proof that HHH produces false negatives.
HHH is unable to simulate itself up to the normal
termination.

So, in other words, Olcott denies verified facts. HHH
generates false negatives, as is verified in
              int main() {
                return HHH(main);
              }
but he denies it.
He lacks the ability to accept simple verified facts,
which he tries to hide with a lot of irrelevant words.

It is a verified fact that main cannot possibly be
correctly simulated by HHH until its normal termination.

Indeed, which proves that HHH is unable to simulate
itself correctly.

If this was true then you could point out exactly where
HHH is incorrect.

HHH is supposed to be a decider, i.e. halt and return the
correct value.

The directly executed HHH(DD) always halts and returns a
correct value as soon as it correctly determines that its
input cannot possibly terminate normally.

We were talking about HHH(HHH). If the outer HHH halts
according to spec, so does the inner, because it is the same.
Therefore it can’t report „non-halting” and be correct. If
the inner HHH doesn’t halt, it is not a decider.

I am not going to ever talk about that.

Oh goody, you’re never getting anywhere if you reject corrections.

I reject infinite deflection away from the point. The absolute
single-mined focus point is that DD correctly simulated by HHH
cannot possible terminate normally.

That IS the point. DD does nothing else than call HHH.

Ok, I will wait a month then.

Anyone that knows the C language sufficiently well knows that DD
correctly simulated by HHH cannot possibly terminate normally.

 
Indeed, which shows the limitation of HHH which makes that it cannot
properly decide about its input, because  it must abort the correct
simulation before it sees that the correct simulation terminates
normally.
 

The correct simulation is only the one that it sees by definition. it
maps ITS INPUT TO THE BEHAVIOR OF THIS INPUT.
All of the people that think it should map the behavior of a non-input
have always been wrong.

What is the non-input?
The input is DD, and its behaviour is that it halts.
HHH’s simulation is not correct by definition.
