Then it is NOT a Halt Detector. PERIOD. BY DEFINITON.

H <M> w needs to decide on the behavior of M w, thus

H <H"> <H"> is REQUIRED to decide on the behvior of H" <H">

embedded_H MUST be a copy of H, and thus report the same answer.

Thus if embedded_H <H"> <H"> is NOT deciding on H" <H"> that just
PROVES that H/embedded_H is NOT a Halt Decider, and your whole prove if
invalid.

PERIOID.

FAIL.
