Nov 4, 2019 at 8:31 comment added SSequence Deleting previous comment and re-writing it for better clarity. "Quite roughly speaking, in the "EDIT:" I am thinking something similar to the idea of oracle programs with access to instruction of form $U:=Halt(v)$. Here $v$ is a usual ordinal variable. The instruction would give us a $U \subseteq \omega$ which describes which (ordinary) program indexes with just one parameter (which is current value of $v$) and no input halt. I am thinking whether the halting times of these oracle programs (or those similar to these) should be of concern or not."

Nov 4, 2019 at 5:12 comment added SSequence @JoelDavidHamkins Thanks for answering the question. I have added an optional point (in-case you find it interesting) in the edit. Is there an easy explanation for it? Anyway, I will try to think about it more precisely, and as I mentioned, possibly formulate it as a separate question (in-case I think it can be made precise).
Nov 3, 2019 at 9:26 comment added Joel David Hamkins Thanks for your edits, which have improved the question. I have posted an updated answer, which I think gets at the issue you want.

Nov 2, 2019 at 13:45 comment added SSequence @JoelDavidHamkins Edited to make it as short as possible.
Nov 2, 2019 at 13:44 comment added Joel David Hamkins Your question will get a much better reception if you edit it, severely, for length. Currently, the post is a confusing mess. You've got part (A), then long part (A), part (B), etc., and in the middle of part (B), you say you've come to your "main question" and make a statement in bold type, but this is not even a question. I stopped reading part way through and just tried to guess what you were asking. Less is more.
Nov 2, 2019 at 13:34 comment added SSequence @JoelDavidHamkins I have edited to add link to a basic sketch of few lines (as I mentioned in above post), under the heading (B). Even though it is just a rough sketch, hopefully it makes it easier to understand the idea that I have tried to describe in the few paragraphs that follow (under the given heading).

Nov 2, 2019 at 5:46 comment added SSequence @JoelDavidHamkins To add some further clarity, I think I will edit the question (most likely within a day) and upload a document which illustrates the basic structure of what I wrote under the heading (B) (that is, using informal program-like language). This should only be 20--30 lines or so and would make, what I wrote, easier to follow. In particular, it would be easier to follow that the behaviour of $u$ and output cells (due to alterations) on limits shouldn't matter.
Nov 1, 2019 at 23:33 comment added SSequence You already answered part-(A) in first-half of your answer (meaning its answer should be in positive given your answer). Whatever is under the heading part-(B) specifically, it isn't that long I think (about 700 words or so).
Nov 1, 2019 at 20:58 comment added Joel David Hamkins Your question is much too long and rambling. Can you edit to focus it on the main point?
