   Indeed and this 'itself' is HHH, not HHH1.   
      
   >   
   > HHH1(DDD) must NOT simulate itself simulating DDD because DDD DOES NOT   
   > CALL HHH1(DDD)   
      
   No, HHH1 must simulate the same as HHH, namely HHH. Because that is what   
   the input specifies.   
      
   So, both must simulate the same thing: HHH. Here HHH fails, because it   
   cannot simulate itself up to the end, but HHH1 succeeds, because it has   
   no problem to simulate HHH.   
      
   When both are simulating exactly the same thing, namely HHH, where one   
   does not reach the final halt state and the other one succeeds to reach   
   it, it is a proof that Hush’s simulation is incorrect.   
      
   Further irrelevant and incorrect claims ignored. They only prove the   
   lack of arguments or honesty.
