    No, you haven't. Not by the definition of Computation Theory.


    You cannot possibly correctly disagree with a necessary truth.

    A simpler paraphrase of my words are this:

    If the input to embedded_H specifies a sequence of configurations
    that never halt then it is necessarily correct for embedded_H to
    report that its input specifies a sequence of configurations that
    never halt.

    This has the same logical form as: if X is a black cat then X is a cat. >>>>


    No, that statement is a LIE and a RED HERRING. I have never disagreed
    that IF the input to H specifies a sequense of configuration that
    will never halt that it is correct to say it is HALTING.

    What is NOT correct is that H can report that, because it has been
    shown that IF H goes to H.Qn, then the input does NOT specifiy a
    sequence that will never halt, because it specifies a sequence that
    does HALT.


    You simply don't have the intellectual capacity to understand that
    because a halt decider is a decider that it computes the mapping from
    its input to an accept or reject state thus:

    SEQUENCES OF CONFIGURATIONS THAT ARE NOT ACTUAL INPUTS HAVE NO
    RELEVANCE WHAT-SO-EVER TO THE CORRECTNESS OF THE HALT STATUS
    DETERMINATION.


    THAT is a LIE.


    THIS IS SELF-EVIDENT TRUTH
    If the simulated input to embedded_H never halts then embedded_H is
    necessarily correct to report that it never halts.
