This is interesting. Do you have an outline of how a person would go about determining whether a Turing machine will halt? If so, I would be interested in seeing it. Alternatively, if you have a more detailed argument as to why a person will be able to determine whether an arbitrary Turing machine will halt, even if that argument does not contain the details of how the person would proceed, I would be interested in seeing that.
Or, are you just making the argument that an intelligent person ought to be able in every case to use some combination of inductive reasoning, creativity, mathematical intuition, etc., to correctly determine whether or not a Turing machine will halt?
My reply to you is the same as my reply to Richard Kennaway: it’s easier for me to just do my background research, double-check everything, and eventually publish the full formalism than it is to explain all the details in a blog comment.

Fair enough. I am looking forward to seeing the formalism!
