Which frst means it must emulate per the x86 semantics, which means the 
call to HHH must be followed by the emulation of the x86 instructions of 
HHH, not something else.

And since that is the exact same code as this HHH, if this HHH decides 
to abort and return 0 to its called, the emulated HHH, if correctly 
emulated to the end, will also abort its emulating and return to its 
called, which is DDD, and thus that correct emulation will halt, means 
that it is impossible for HHH to "correctly determine" that the correct 
x86 emulation of its input would not halt, since it does.

Your logic of looking at a CHANGED input, just shows that you don't 
understand the flawed logic of that operation. That is just as bad as 
thinking your pet cat is a 15 story office building.
