So you believe it is possible for a function D to be written such that
D(X,Y) == true if and only of X(Y) halts and false otherwise?  If so,
you need to get on with it.  That's the function the world cares about.
That's the function that will make you famous.  H isn't it, and no one
cares about whatever it is that H is deciding.

The fact that H is deciding something else, does not mean that D can't
also exist.  Either there can be a function D such that D(X,Y) == true
if and only of X(Y) halts and false otherwise or there can't be.  Of
course you have been playing this game long enough to know that you must
never say which you believe to be the case!
