*It is stipulated that H must correctly simulate 1 to ∞ steps of D*
Every other detail about H is unspecified because it is irrelevant.

Of all of the elements of the set of H(D,D) where H simulates its
input there are matched pairs of otherwise identical elements that
only differ by whether they abort their simulation or not.

The half of these that don't abort are incorrect because all deciders
must halt. This makes the other half correct about the abort/no abort
decision.

Then your stipulation is just ILLOGICAL, as a given H can only do one thing.

Garbage In, Garbage Out, and proof is shown to come from an unsound mine.

Which are DIFFERENGT.

I guess you are just claiming that we can consider a cat to be a 10

None-the-less they all share the common property that they either
run forever or abort the simulation of their input. All of the other
differences don't make and damn difference at all.

But that isn't a simple property, so you are creating a FALSE DICHOTOMY.

All the ones that fail to abort have Ds that are based on that and these
become non-halting, and thus, these should have aborted to answer (but
didn't)

By that same reasoning cats have no common attributes and some cats

I don't believe that because a woman lied about her weight
by one pound one time that she will

*Revelation 21:8 NRSV*
....and all liars, their place will be in the lake that burns with
fire and sulphur, which is the second death.’

I also know that God <is> Love and God <has> Wrath is impossibly
true. It is the same as H2O <is> water and H2O <has> Carbon.
*I go by what makes the most sense*

What seems to make the most sense is that we concatenate
"with as much empathy as possible" to the commandment to
"love one another" and abolish the distraction of all of the
other commandments so that we can unite in a single-minded
focus on loving others.

*Galatians 5:14 NRSV*
For the whole law is summed up in a single commandment,
‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself.’

The reason that I persist in my proofs is that righteousness
must be anchored in truth and humans have totally screwed up
the notion of truth with incompleteness and undecidability.

Half the population believes that the 2020 presidential
election was stolen because liars told them so.

H must do what H does.

First note, you have strayed from the actual definiton of the problem,
(andthus are LYING about following it) because the specific D was
DEFINED to use a specific COPY of the one decider it was designed to refute.

Your D ends up failing to even be a Computation, (when you limit the
desciption of D to NOT include H) because its behavior is NOT fully defined.

Yes, any H that doesn't happen to abort its simulation is not a correct
decider because it will fail to decide.

That DOESN'T mean that an H that does abort is correct, as every
different H that is called by D creates a different behavior for D, and
in effect, creates a "new" D, even though its description (by your
stipulation) is the same, but that is because you have created a
non-computation input, and for those, to determine there behavior, we
need to include the appropriate extra "hidden" information, which in
this case is the code of H.

Now, if H does abort and return 0, then it is clear that that makes a
D(D) that will halt, as can be proved by having main call UTM(D,D) with
that D still refering to that original H (which you keep on trying to
lie about not being able to do).

Sincd that simulation will reach an end, then it is shown that these Hs
don't actually NEED to abort, even though (or because of the fact) they do.

You can claim this make this an invalid question, and I would agree,
because your D was built wrong. Build D the RIGHT way, with its own copy
of H (that is fixed to be the H you finally decide on, and doesn't
change during your argument) then the question is valid, and the H that
D was built on is clearly wrong, and any other decider could have its
own "pathelogical" input defined that makes IT wrong.

Not *NO* common attributes, but have some differences, so if you thing
being looked at varies, then not all cat are the same.

For instance, not all cats are black.

You just don't seem to understand the nature of "Categories"

It must abort to be a decider.

Thst doesn't mean that if it does abort, it knows the right answer to
the question about the input halting (or needing to be aborted).

They are NOT the same criteria,

So, are you talking about the ones that do abort, or the ones that don't.

You DO understand that these are DIFFERENT programs, and each must be
looked at individually.

The question is NOT about "classes of Deciders" pair with a "Class of
Inputs".

The quesiton is about ONE SPECIFIC INPUT, and the answer that ONE
SPECIFIC decider gives.

You are just proving you just don't know what you are talking about.

01 void B(ptr x) // ptr is pointer to void function
02 {
03 A(x, x);
04 return;
05 }
06
07 void main()
08 {
09 A(B,B);
10 }

*Execution Trace*
Line 09: main() invokes A(B,B);

*keeps repeating* (unless aborted)
Line 03: simulated B(B) invokes simulated A(B,B) that simulates B(B)

*Simulation invariant*
B correctly simulated by A cannot possibly reach past its own line 03.

The whole class of every A(B,B) that simulates its input
is divided into two sub-classes:
(a) A(B,B) that DOES NOT abort its simulation is incorrect
(ABOUT THIS ABORT DECISION)
because it would never halt and all deciders must always halt.

(b) A(B,N) that DOES abort its simulation is correct
(ABOUT THIS ABORT DECISION)
because it would halt and all deciders must always halt.
