Nope, a Halt Decider must report the Halting Status of the Machine the 
input represents.

Thus P,P is ALWAYS the same computation for a Halting Decider.

The fact that your H and H1 give different answer just proves that they 
aren't Halt Deciders.


Rmebmer xxx decider(foo) needs to give the mapping of xxx(foo) based on 
the definition of xxx.

Halting(P,P) is defined as the halting of the computation P(P).

Thus anything that claims to be a Halting decider need to give the 
answer of Halting(P,P) for H(P,P)

If you claim this isn't possbile because it isn't an input, just proves 
that you can't make a Halting Decider.

This is like if we want to make an 'even decider' as a Turing Machine, 
we can't give a Turing Machine an actual 'Number' but some 
representation of a number.

In the same way the Halt Decider isn't given an ACTUAL program, but a 
representation of it. (and it needs to be a representation of the ENTIRE 
program, or it isn't decidable).
