Both ChatGPT and Claude AI have agreed that these two
specifications are equivalent when the last two lines
of the first spec are interpreted to mean:

H can abort its simulation of D and correctly report
that [the simulated] D specifies a non-halting sequence
of configurations.

<MIT Professor Sipser agreed to ONLY these verbatim words 10/13/2022>
If simulating halt decider H correctly simulates its
input D until H correctly determines that its simulated D
would never stop running unless aborted then

H can abort its simulation of D and correctly report that D
specifies a non-halting sequence of configurations.

Please think this all the way through without making any guesses

Simulating Termination Analyzer HHH correctly simulates its input until:
(a) Detects a non-terminating behavior pattern: abort simulation and
return 0.
(b) Simulated input reaches its simulated "return" statement: return 1.
(c) If HHH must abort its simulation to prevent its own non-termination
then HHH is correct to abort this simulation and return 0.

typedef int (*ptr)();
int HHH(ptr P);

int DD()
{
int Halt_Status = HHH(DD);
if (Halt_Status)
HERE: goto HERE;
return Halt_Status;
}

int main()
{
HHH(DD);
}

What value should HHH(DD) correctly return?
