No, we just use the actual meaning of the words.

Like, to BE a decider and valid input, they need to be programs, but 
have now stipulated that they are not, they are just functions.

How can a non-program be a program?

But since your HHH and DDD are not programs, they do not match the 
meaning of the statement when taken in the context it was pur into.

No, the problem is you have been working with strawmen for 20.

Right, so since you have admitted that you are not using programs, as 
the problem requires, you whole system is just a strawman,

As non-programs are not programs, and thus different from the actual 
problem under discussion.

If you change your tactic, and create your own POOPS system to discuss 
in, then you can halting POOPS, and whatever that means, but of course, 
since we are then in deep POOPS we are not talking about the actual 
Computation Theory and what occures in there.

My guess is you are effeftively trying to refute ZFC by using facts from 
Naive Set Theory, which just don't apply to ZFC.

That seems as an apt comparison, as so much of your POOPS ideas that you 
do state seem so naive.
