Until you agree with this we cannot move on to the next
and final point that proves I am correct. Proving that
point may possibly take longer than the rest of my life
so let's not delay this OK?

 The call from DDD to H0(DDD) when DDD is correctly emulated
by x86 emulator H0 cannot possibly return.

 If it is too hard to prove that H0 has the properties you claim
then an agreement is unlikely. Perhaps you should Δ instead and
just assume it has the properties you consider essential. The
full proof of your claim does not need much more.
 

 It is not at all too hard to prove.

Then prove it. The following does not even mention H0 and therefore
does not prove anything about it.

 It is easy to prove
if you know, C, x86 emulators and the x86 language
sufficiently well and impossible otherwise.

 The call from DDD to HHH(DDD) when N steps of DDD are correctly
emulated by any pure function x86 emulator HHH cannot possibly return.

The phrase "any pure function x86 emulator HHH" is incorrect. In particular,
the word "any" is wrong. At 217a DDD calls 15d2 and that is the only call
in DDD. The function at 15d2 either is or is not pure, we just don't konw
as long as no proof is shown; and it either is ir is not a x86
emulator, we just don't as long as no proof is shown; and it ehither does
or does not return, we just don't know as long as no proof is shown.
It does not make sense to say "cannot": as long as you dont't prove that
it does return and don't prove that it does not return the main point
remains unproven.
