Just a reminder that you are arguing with someone who has declared that
the wrong answer is the right one:

Me: "do you still assert that [...] false is the "correct" answer even
    though P(P) halts?"

PO: Yes that is the correct answer even though P(P) halts.

(Back then, D was called P.)

This was not a slip of the tongue.  He has been quite clear that he is
talking about something other than what the world calls halting.  It's
about what /would/ happen if the program were slight different, not
about what actually happens:

PO: "A non-halting computation is every computation that never halts
    unless its simulation is aborted.  This maps to every element of the
    conventional halting problem set of non-halting computations and a
    few more."

He has been (eventually) perfectly clear -- PO's "Other Halting" is not
halting, which is why false can be the correct answer for some halting
computations.  The only mystery is why anyone still wants to talk about
POOH.
