 Which is not what you thought he agreed to:
 

I have proven otherwise below:
(the words only have one correct meaning)
*UNTIL YOU ADDRESS THESE POINTS THEY WILL BE ENDLESSLY REPEATED*
People tried for more than a year to get away with saying
that DDD was not emulated by HHH correctly until I stipulated
that DDD is emulated by HHH according to the rules of the
x86 language. Then they shut up about this.
People tried to get away with saying that HHH
cannot not decide halting on the basis of
*simulated D would never stop running unless aborted*
until I pointed out that those exact words are in the spec.
People tried to get away with saying that the correct
emulation of a non-halting input cannot be partial
Yet partial simulation is right in the spec:
*H correctly simulates its input D until*
