All of these details must be assumed. When you

Sure we can do that the same way that
you said we could do it for this:
void Infinite_Loop()
{
HERE: goto HERE;
return;
}

Or you could have much more simply made N larger.
The convolution of these extra steps merely hides
the simple essential truth.

Yes that part was an excellent empirical proof.
You could just keep increasing N until out-of-memory
error. This would form a reasonably plausible proof
that comes short of absolute certainty.
The absolute certainty comes by simply recognizing
the behavior pattern that D simulated cannot possibly
reach its own "return" statement no matter what H does.
Almost everyone here should have recognized that
this is only slightly more complex than infinite
recursion three years ago.
