The point is that whether these remarks are true or not, the situation
is the same in x86utm-side work as in the abstract pseudo-interpretation
exercise.

Now, the remarks are not true. You have misunderstood the technique.

The simulation of D is represented by a bunch of state (which in
the abstract exercise is represened by an "interp *s" handle;
in the x86utm Halt7 test case it is several objects, tracked by pointers with
names like slave_state and slave_stack).

Conducting that simulation does not specifically require H.  It requires
/something/ to make repeated calls to interp_step(s).  None of the simulation
state is inside H: it is all encapsualted inside the "interp" object. After any
interp_step(s) call made by H, that simulation could be handed off to another
agent to make subsequent calls to interp_step; the result of stepping
the simulation would be the same.

When H walks away from the interpretation and returns false, we are not
interested in resuming H from the point where it made the decision.
(Which lies sometime between the most recent interp_step call and the
return false statement). 

To resume D, all we need is the "interp *s" API handle, and to start
making interp_step(s) calls.

We do not need to do anythning with H; that doesn't make sense.

H, and the simulation of D, are like separate threads. We only care
about the D thread. After H detaches from that thread, is the remaining
execution of that thread terminating.

That's simply untrue. People have built your code and meaningfully
experimented with it.

What is your evidence for the belief that it was over anyone's head?

It's easy to work with; the compiled x86 functions are mostly small, and
a complete disassembly is given of the entire test case when it is run
so things are easy to follow.

That said, neither interpreted nor compiled C is the best mode of presentation
of this material to academia; switching from one to the other is mostly a
lateral, unproductive move.
