   HHH cannot be correctly required to report on the behavior   
   of an external process that it has no access to.   
      
   As soon as HHH correctly determines that it must abort the   
   simulation of its input to prevent its own infinite execution   
   HHH is necessarily correct to reject this finite string as   
   specifying non-halting behavior.
