No one ever tells it anything different than this.

H must be able to objectively determine the exact behavior
that it is to report on and no one ever told it about D(D).
They only told it about D correctly simulated by H.

The input to H(D,D) does not provide the means for H to determine
the behavior of D(D).

So? Why does it need to, that is the job of H to figure out,
The INPUT does DEFINE the correct answer, but not in a method that H can use itself.

 I keep asking you to show all of the steps of how H(D,D) determines
the behavior of D(D) from its input and you dodge because you know
that I am correct.

And why do I need to, because that isn't the question.
I guess you are just admitting you accept a proble to solve, and are stuck and are trying to get others to do it for yoiu.

 H(D,D) is not told about the behavior of D(D) and you cannot show
otherwise with any sequence of steps of correct reasoning.
 

But it is, just not in a computable manner, the behavior of the input to H(D,D) is EXACTLY the behavor of UTM(D,D).
Now, the problem is that H had to be written BEFORE D was (as the code for D is dependent on H) since H is making a claim to handle "all comers" (i.e. answer for EVERY input). This means the input program can use a copy of the decider to compute what it will answer and then do the opposite.
This just shows that the problem does turn out to be uncomputable, because the power of the computation system grows faster than the ability to decide on the computation.
