Sufficient knowledge of the x86 language conclusively proves
that the call from DDD correctly emulated by HHH to HHH(DDD)
cannot possibly return for any pure function HHH.

 Suffifcient knowledge of the x86 language makes obvious that
DDD returns if and only if HHH returns.
 

That is insufficient knowledge. Sufficient knowledge proves that
DDD correctly simulated by HHH meets this criteria.

     If simulating halt decider H correctly simulates its input D
     until H correctly determines that its simulated D would never
     stop running unless aborted then
     H can abort its simulation of D and correctly report that D
     specifies a non-halting sequence of configurations.

Whether a partial simulation of DDD simulates the return depends
on the simulator.

That is false proving that you have insufficient knowledge.
When DDD is correctly simulated by any pure function x86 emulator
that aborts its emulation at some point calls HHH(DDD) this
call never returns.

The code of DDD and x86 language don't tell
how much a simulator (not shown above) simulates.
 

Correct analysis proves that does not matter. None of the N
emulated instructions of DDD correctly emulated by HHH ever
reach past the fourth instruction of DDD.
