   Because HHH aborts prematurely, showing the failure of this method.   
   Each of them can be proven incorrect with a HHH with a larger N, when   
   the input is not changed.

   Irrelevant, because the input is not only those 18 bytes, but includes   
   all functions called directly or indirectly by DDD, including the HHH   
   that aborts.

   And that code also belongs to the input, so you change the input.   
   Indeed, for each HHH we can construct a DDD that shows that HHH fails.
