One should not that "D simulated by H" is not the same as
"simulation of D by H". The message below seems to be more
about the latter than the former. In any case, it is more
about the properties of H than about the properties of D.

Several people agreed that D simulated by H cannot possibly
reach past its own line 03 no matter what H does.

Nope, it is only that if H fails to be a decider.

Computable functions are the formalized analogue of the intuitive notion
of algorithms, in the sense that a function is computable if there
exists an algorithm that can do the job of the function, i.e. given an
input of the function domain it can return the corresponding output. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computable_function

You claim you want to work in a manner to save time, but then seem to explicitly go on a tack that will force you to waste time by needing to return to your prior points when you change the definition and prove them again.

But since your "reasoning" begins by making dodgy assumptions, people are going to reject that from the start. And then you insist that people start by accepting your dodgy assumptions, with a promise to prove them later. START by proving them, and maybe people will look at your work.

Since previously you point blanks said that H, as a Halt Decider was "Correct" as a Halt Decider to return non-halting for H(D,D) even though D(D) halted, and the DEFINITION of H(D,D) was to ask about the behavior of D(D), but "for reasons" the wrong answer was correct because D(D) doesn't always behave the same way when that is counter to the fundamental definitions of Computation Theory.

It then came out that the reason was that H never was the required computation (since it depended on a hidden input) so you whole proposal was just a lie.

Unless you accept that it is true because it is trivially true, that H is "correct" to say its simulation of the input didn't finish because H aborted it simulation, and an aborted simulation of course never reaches the end.

And thus, ANY such Simulation Termination analyzer would be correct to decide that ALL inputs were needing to be terminated because that is what it did.

For instance, how can "whether or not H aborts its simulation" have any meaning for what you have defined H to be, since H is a single program, and that will always do what it is programmed to do.

I say that MY H is just like the Linz H in that they both
have Y you say no you are wrong they do not both have X.
 

No, you say your H has property Y that Linz's H does not Have.
The Linz H is exactly a single specific machine.
Your H is, as you just said, specifying an (UNDEFINED) infinite set of machines.
A single machine is not an infinte set.
Thus, you are shown to be a LIAR.
