That is why I triple dog dare you to define it or acknowledge that no
such program can possibly be defined because the input D to any
corresponding H is isomorphic to Jack's question posed to Jack.

Once we acknowledge that the halting problem input to H is an incorrect
to H then we can understand that this incorrect question is aptly re-
framed into the correct question:

Does input D halt on its input [GOOD INPUT] or is D [BAD INPUT] that
either fails to halt or defines a pathological relationship to H.

This does overcome Rice's theorem for at least the reduction of Rice's
theorem to the halting problem.

Does input D have semantic property S or is input D [BAD INPUT]?
