What is it?  The olcott machine is a device that never halts and
generates infinite amounts of nonsense.  As a perpetual motion
device with no discernable input and unbounded output, it is
believed that it violates the laws of thermodynamics.

It is not hidden. The master UTM of Olcott machines simply

 Which means they ADMIT they are doing a different computation then the Turing Machine they are derived from.
 So, there can not be an Olcott Machine that matches the signature of a Halt Decider.
 PERIOD
 And thus, you prove you have created another worthless field.

I am working on the computability of the halting problem
(the exact same TMD / input pairs) by a slightly augmented
notion of Turing machines as elaborated below:
Olcott machines are entirely comprised of a UTM + TMD and one
extra step that any UTM could perform, append the TMD to the end
of its own tape.
Olcott machines that ignore this extra input compute the exact
same set of functions that Turing machines compute.
Olcott machines can do something that no Turing machine can
possibly do correctly determine that they themselves are
called in recursive simulation.
