it only shows how the "impossible" input is correctly determined
to be non halting.

But how do you determine it is non-halting?
As I know you are even unable to define what 'halt' mean !!!

 

If DDD correctly emulated by HHH cannot possibly reach its return
instruction then it never halts.

When HHH does what-ever-the-hell the x86 semantics specifies then HHH
is correct.

But since HHH deviates from the semantics of the x86 language (by
skipping instructions of a halting  program) it is incorrect.

I mean, how many iterations of an infinite loop can I skip simulating or
how many do I have to simulate to get identical behaviour?
