When you agree that H(D,D) is a correct termination analyzer within
my definition then we can proceed to the next point about whether
my definition is correct or diverges from the standard definition.

Nobody will agree that H(D,D) is a correct termination analyzer

H(D,D) to that definition. And nut even then if the comparison is
insufficient or erronous.

When I insist that we go over all of the details of each key point
then it is no longer possible to intentionally misconstrue what I
say without it being dead obvious that the misconstrual is intentional.

Insisting does not help. You only need to go over all the details

However, one failure is not a proof of impossibility. Improve the

We have never tried that going completely through every single detail

know logic you are just a stupid liar.

If you don't want to be called "mostly wrong" you must put more effort

The first level of granularity seeks mutual agreement
on the pure software engineering aspect of this:

No aspect of computer science can be discussed until after

If you don't wnat to be called "ignorant of logic" you must be more
careful with the logical validity of your inferences and proofs and
avoid saying anything that could sound like ingnorance of logic.

If you don't want to be called "stupid" you should avoid saying

If you don't want to be called a "liar" you must not say anything

You havn't but that is not relevant. The point is that you are seen

I must insist that we go over these details otherwise people

The software engineering aspects of this are like arithmetic

assessment with zero subjective judgement calls inbetween.

Those that the most important things to get right. Not the

Validity of a formal proof is like syntactic correctness

So far most people here have disagreed with the basic facts

As sofware engineering is less relevant than the basic theory

By insisting that we attain mutual agreement on this before
proceeding on to any other point it becomes much more difficult
for people to disagree with basic facts of software engineering.

No, it does not. People can agree anyway, just like you do.

Proven incorrect and you have decline to try to refute it, thus conceding it to be incorrect, and your restatement just a lie.
 

"proven to be incorrect" by nonsense gibberish
That "D simulated by H" can mean "D NEVER simulated by H"
Also you fail to understand that when the executed H(D,D)
aborts its simulated input that all of the nested simulations
(if any) immediately totally stop running. No simulated H ever
returns any value to any simulated D.
That is only ordinary software engineering with zero subjective
leeway of interpretation. It is just like I yank the power cord
from the wall and you don't understand that the program immediately
stops running.
You are doing better than Alan on this though he doesn't
have a single clue about what execution traces are or how
they work.
