finite strings are passed as pointers to finite
string in C.

Nope. I don't believe it is a pointer to chocolates, even if you say so.
It is about the code of D/H itself. They do not process string, the fact says
the author of the program does not intend to process 'string'.

 The input to HHH(DDD) is a pointer to a finite string
of machine code.

No, it's not. It's a pointer to function.

HHH applies an x86 emulator to this
finite string.

No, HHH casts P's value to uint32_t (which is legal) and then dereferences it (which is not). There is no string to apply anything to.
