   Because we know that HHH, also the simulated HHH, is programmed to abort

   Programs have no ideas. They do what is coded.   
   When you still want to think about ideas: DDD has no idea that HHH will   
   simulate itself recursively. It expects HHH to return.

   but a good simulator would see that the internal state of HHH has been   
   changed, which would influence the conditional branch instructions.
