A decider computes the mapping from finite string inputs to
its own accept or reject state.
A decider does not and cannot compute the mapping from
Turing_Machine inputs to its own accept or reject state.
Halts(x,y) would report on the direct execution of x(y) thus ignores
the pathological behavior of x correctly simulated by pure function H.
This makes Halts(x,y) an incorrect measure of the correctness of H(x,y).
This is easier to see when we can see every single detail of all of
the steps as an x86 execution trace of D correctly simulated by pure
function H.

Local Halt Decider: Recursive Simulation Detected Simulation Stopped
DD correctly simulated by HH cannot possibly reach its own simulated
final state at line 06 in any number of steps including an infinite
number of steps because DD correctly simulated by HH remains stuck in
recursive simulation.
