Those who insist on responding to Olcott (of which I admit I have occasionally been one despite my better intuitions) would be well advised to adopt something like the rule of ko (in the game go) which prohibits one from returning to the exact same position. Simply repeating the same objection after olcott has ignored it is pointless. If he didn't get the objection the fiftieth time he's not going to get it the fifty-first time either.

 Just like naive set theory wanted to know
about Russell's Paradox until ZFC came along
and ruled that questions about Russell's Paradox
are based on an incorrect notion of set theory.

But nothing incorect has been shown about computation theory.
IF you want to try to define your POOPS, then go ahead, and see if anyone cares about it.
Note, Naive set thoery didn't what to know about Russell's Paradox, as things seemed just fine until he discovered it.
To make the analogy, you need to find such a paradox in Computaiton Theory using its actual definitions, which you need to start by learning.
Since you have admitted you current system fails to meet the requirements, you seem to need to start all over.
Remember, your decider needs to be an actual program, which has been fully defined as to what it does (no "do the right thing") and the input given to it needs to represent a program, which means it has ALL the code it uses, and the criteria needs to be the defined criteria, which is if the program that the input represents will halt when run.
Until you figure out how to work those into your proof (good luck) you are just shown to be just a pathological liar.

 

The behavior of "HHH simulated by DD" is just not something that anyone cares about.
