Maybe Literally. The Devil loves to use statements that are mostly true but have a ting of falsehood in it to corrupt the hearer. Are you working for him? But Yes, if H never aborted any P then H would not be a decider. That does NOT mean that H is correct in aborting P and calling it non-Halting, since when we change H we change P. Hn non aborting -> Hn(Pn,Pn) will be none halting. Ha aborting -> Ha(Pa,Pa) will answer, by your stipulation non-halting. This means that Pa(Pa) will get the non-Halting answer from its call to Ha(Pa,Pa) and will halt and thus Pa(Pa) is a Halting computaiton, and Ha was wrong. All you have shown is that Ha(Pn,Pn) can say non-halting and be right about that answer, which doesn't mean a thing, as Pn never claimed to be able to confound Ha, only Hn, and only if Hn could actually answer. The machine that confounds Ha is Pa, and it DOES succeed, as Ha says Pa(Pa) is non-Halting when even as you have confiremed Pa(Pa) does Halt. You just get stuck in your 'logic' and want non-Halting to be the right answer because you confuse Pa and Pn because you don't seem to understand the concept of complete programs.
