And is no longer a UTM, since if fails to meet the requirement of a UTM

You are just showing you don't understand what a "UTM" actually is.

Note, that UTM isn't just a fancy word for "Simulator", but a very
specific type of simulator, and since some of your "additions" break
those requiremnts, your H isn't actually a UTM.

You are just proving your stupidity.

And no matter how many steps (N) you design your H / embedded_H to
simulate Ĥ (Ĥ), there will always be a slightly larger (but still
finite) number, which if the same input is given to an ACTUAL UTM, that
simulation will reach the point that the top level embedded_H decides to
abort its simulation, transition to Qn, and Ĥ Halts.

Since you MUST chose your "N" when you design your H, it is a SINGLE
DEFINED VALUE, and always to small to determine the actual behavior of
the Ĥ[n] built on that H[n].

The only Ĥ[n] that is non-halting is when N becomes infinite, but for
that N, H never answers.

In fact, your flawed logic is based on the LIE that embedded_H can have
a different N than H does, which just means you LIED when you said you
built Ĥ by the requirements.

As you already agreed:
The behavior of N steps of ⟨Ĥ⟩ simulated by embedded_H must are the
actual behavior of these N steps because

(a) Watching the behavior doesn't change it.
(b) Matching non-halting behavior patterns doesn't change it
(c) Even aborting the simulation after N steps doesn't change the
first N steps.

But a UTM doesn't simulate just "N" steps of its input, but ALL of them.

Anything less and it isn't a UTM. DEFINITION.

Your basically claiming that your immortal since you haven't died, YET.

You are just PROVING that you don't understand what you are talking about.

Since you don't seem to want to hold to correct definitions, everything
you say needs to be treated as a likely LIE or DECEPTION.

You are just proving your incompetence.

Yet when embedded_H simulates N steps of ⟨Ĥ⟩ this is the actual behavior
of ⟨Ĥ⟩ for these N steps, thus when embedded_H simulates 10,000
recursive simulations these are the actual behavior of ⟨Ĥ⟩.

Yes, but doesn't actually show the ACTUAL behavior of the input as
defined, since that would be what the ACTUAL MACHINE does, or the
COMPLETE SIMULATION done by a UTM, not the PARTIAL simulation done by H.

You are using a STRAWMAN criteria, so you get the wrong answer.

That is like drive 10 miles on a road, then getting off, and say they
all looked the same, so this road must go on forever.

Note, embedded_H simulates for the EXACT SAME number of steps as H, so
gets the exact same answer, because it INCORRECTLY aborts at the exact
same point and decides its input is non-halting, returning that answer
to its caller, which makes the ACTUAL BEHAVIOR that input represents to
be Halting.

You are just proving that you don't understand the simple basic of the
theory, and are proving yourself to be a ignorant liar.

There is only one actual behavior of the actual input and this behavior
is correctly demonstrated by N steps of ⟨Ĥ⟩ simulated by embedded_H.

If you simply don't "believe in" UTMs then you might not see this
correctly.

If you fully comprehend UTMs then you understand that 10,000 recursive
simulations of ⟨Ĥ⟩ by embedded_H are the actual behavior of ⟨Ĥ⟩.

Nope, Read the problem definition.

The behavior to be decided by a Halt Decider is the behavior of the
ACTUAL MACHINE which is decribed by the input.

You are just trying to pass a DECIETFULL LIE about what your H is
supposed to do, because you just don't understand the theory, because
you are just too ignorant.

No, you are the one that doesn't seem to "believe" in UTMs. You don't
seem to understand that a UTM ALWAYS recreates the behavior of the
machine it is given the description of, because it NEVER stops until it
is done.

Anything less is NOT a UTM, and you LIE when you claim your H is one.

Nope, ALL the steps of Ĥ (Ĥ) is the behavior of the input, which is also
what happens when you give a REAL UTM (one the doesn't stop) the input
UTM (Ĥ) (Ĥ)

You are just stuck in using INCORRECT definitions, so you get wrong
answers. This shows that you really don't understand the very basics of
what Truth is, because Truth is base on using the RIGHT definitions, the
definition defined by the field.

Thus, YOU LIE when you make your claims, because you are too igno

No matter what the problem definition says the actual behavior of the
actual input must necessarily be the N steps simulated by embedded_H.

The only alternative is to simply disbelieve in UTMs.

NOPE, Since H isn't a UTM, because it doesn't meet the REQUIREMENTS of a
UTM, the statement is meaningless.

A UTM is defined as a simulator whose behavior DOES match the behavior
of the input. MATCHING is the criteria that determines that it IS one,
not a result of just calling a machine one.

By your logic, I could change my cat into a dog my just calling it one.

Calling your machine a UTM, doesn't make it one, you need to make it
meet the requirements to earn the title. Your doesn't.

What happens if you decide to call the color "Red" to be "Green", and
run through a traffic light when the top light is on. A traffic ticket
for running a "Red Light", because just because you called it a Green
Light doesn't make it one.

YOU FAIL.

You are showing you don't understand the basics of logic, so your ideas

It <is> equivalent to a UTM for the first N steps that can include
10,000 recursive simulations.

Which means it ISN'T the Equivalent of a UTM. PERIOD.

The numbers from 1 to 10 are not the equivalent of the numbers from 1 to
a hundred.

NOT EQUIVALENT is NOT EQUIVALENT.

It might correctly simulate the first N steps, but that doesn't make it
a UTM.
