Except the input isn't self-contradictory, since the input can't exist 
until H is defined, and once H is defined, the input has definite 
behavior, so there is no self-contradiction possilble, only error.

SInce your H that you are analyzing isn't actually a program yet, since 
its behavior has not been fixed, the point where you hit yoru 
contradiction is just in the DESIGN phase, showing that no H that meets 
the requirements can be built, proving the theorem you claim to be 
refuting, showing yourself to be a LIAR.

You are just showing you don't understand what a program actually is.


The "Modified" Halting Problem that Fritz presents IS an alternative 
that maight be solvable, but the "Don't Know" category makes its 
usefulness questionable. At one extreme, without a clearer definition of 
what can be answered "Don't Know" would be a decider that just decides 
all inputs as Don't Know.
