HHH is an emulating termination analyzer that emulates

 I challenged everyone here to provide the machine address
by machine address (AKA line by line) execution trace
of DD correctly emulated by HHH that reaches its own
"ret" instruction.

 Olcott could as well challenge everyone to draw a correct square circle.
 

 No one made any attempt to do this because they know that
this would prove that they are stupidly wrong to say that
my trace is incorrect.
 

 No one will attempt to draw a square circle. Does that imply that it is wrong to say that another failed attempt to draw a square circle is incorrect?
 Similarly, HHH cannot possibly simulate itself correctly.

 This C code conclusively proves that HHH does correctly
emulate self emulating DD correctly.

 A C code does not prove. Only a proof would prove.

 The C code proves exactly these things.

No, it does not. That you can insist that it would indicates that
you don't know what the word means.

That you can't even understand that it does prove
those things shows even less technical competence.

One doesn't need much techincal competence to tell the difference
between a C code and a proof.
