   As usual claims without evidence. (Shouting is no evidence.)   
   The input for HHH has code to abort and halt, so this input specifies a   
   halting program.   
   If HHH fails to reach that final halt state, that does not change the   
   specification.   
   The input specifies a halting program, no matter what HHH can see of it.
