Why is this function called 'Simulate'?

There's nothing remotely resembling simulation going on there. The 
function is simply calling the function pointer that was passed to it. 
That's execution, not simulation.

Which raises all sorts of questions regarding your previous usage of the 
term 'simulate'. Does your 'simulating decider' actually involve 
simulation at all?
