But, Halting theorem never said "there's an input that halts
all machines", it just says "for any machine, there's an input
that halts it".

Where "halt the machine" means "put it in an infinite loop".

So, rather, Halting theorem never said "there's an input that
exhausts all machines", it just says, "for any machine, there's
an input that exhausts it".

I still don't see how that would be with infinite tapes though,
without a means of checking all the way right the tape in one
step, i.e. that it's 1's or 0's or any pattern at all, any
input that unbounded with respect to the machine basically
exhausts it or where the machine would run in the unbounded.


Of course any finite tape, has a static analysis that is
not infinite, that decides whether or not it halts
(or, loops, or grows, the state space of the decider).

Static analysis has to either enumerate or _infer_ the
state-space, where equal values in what's determined
the idempotent can detect loops, while inequalities
or proven divergence, ..., can detect unbounded growth.

Now, proving convergence or divergence is its own kind
of thing. For example, there are series that converge
