This post is mostly for the benefit of Richard Damon who likes to play
word games.

The primary halting problem theorem proof [Turing, 1936] (upon which
other currently extant halting problem proofs are derived) is invalid
due to an invalid "impossible program" [Strachey, 1965] that arises not
from a function call-like infinite recursion but from a category error
in the form of an invalid (erroneous) infinite recursion present in the
proof [Wikipedia, 2022].

The categories involved in the category error are the decider and that
which is being decided.  Currently extant  attempts to conflate the
decider with that which is being decided are infinitely recursive and
thus invalid.
