The original halt status criteria has the impossible requirement

Requiring H to be clairvoyant is an unreasonable requirement.

Means H does a correct partial simulation of D until H correctly
matches the recursive simulation non-halting behavior pattern.

For every possible way that H can be encoded and D(D) calls H(D,D) either H(D,D) aborts its simulation or D(D) never stops running.

That does not correspond to the specification of H shown immediately
above that only has H(D,D) simulate its input and does not even require
H to ever stop running.

It corresponds to the actual H that you wrote.

 For every possible way that H can be encoded, it aborts its simulation. If it doesn't abort, then it's a different piece of code, not H.

H is an algorithm that simulates its input and correctly
determines whether or not it needs to abort this simulation.
That is all that this thread's H does.
