You've hit the nail on the head, there.  Peter Olcott doesn't show
respect here for anybody.  Because of this he isn't shown any respect
back - he hasn't earned any.  I don't think he understands the concept
of respect any more than he understands the concept of truth.

him, something that you've sensibly given up.

How is the "pattern" that HHH detects a non-halting pattern, when non- halting is DEFINED by the behavior of the directly executed machine, and the pattern you are thinking of exists in the execution of the DDD that halts because it was built on the same HHH you claim is correct to return 0,

 No you told it that a correct simulating termination analyser could be presumed. Which is an invalid presumption, because it has been proven that it cannot.
 

Unlike a halt decider that must be correct
on every input a simulating termination analyzer
only needs be correct on at least one input.
void Infinite_Recursion()
{
   Infinite_Recursion();
}
void Infinite_Loop()
{
   HERE: goto HERE;
   return;
}
void Infinite_Loop2()
{
L1: goto L3;
L2: goto L1;
L3: goto L2;
}
HHH correctly determines the halt status of
the above three functions.

That they provided all of the reasoning why DDD correctly
simulated by HHH does not halt proves that they do have
the functional equivalent of human understanding.

 The other error is the presumption that a simulation that does not reach the end of the simulation is evidence for non-termination.

*Incorrect paraphrase*
Halting is defined as reaching a final halt state.
if the state is final, the machine just stops and continues no more.
https://cs.stackexchange.com/questions/38228/what-is-halting
When it is correctly predicted that
an infinite simulation of the input
cannot possibly reach its own "return"
statement final halt state then the
input is non-halting.

It is not. An incomplete simulation is at best an indication that other tools are needed to determine non-halting behaviour.
 

You cannot possibly coherently explain the details of this
because what you just said in incorrect. Exactly what are
the "other tools" that you are referring to a magic wand?

  Even first year CS students understand that false presumptions lead to false conclusions. That is the only thing the chat box shows.Yet they recognize that recursive simulation is a

non-halting behavior pattern similar to infinite
recursion. Termination analyzers correctly predict
what the behavior of infinite simulation would be.
