Look a little later in the rule: If a black hole is both adjacent to an 
older one and within two squares of an interdictor, the older one is 
destroyed, and counts as having been destroyed by the newer one.

Mine is within two squares of the Interdictor at H5, and so consumes 
yours rather than the other way around.
