Halting means reaching a final halt state.
And non-halting means unlimited execution.

Not at all. The measure has always been can't possibly reach
final halt state. If it was not that way then smashing a
computer with a sledge hammer would "prove" that an infinite
loop halts.Not at all. The measure is unlimited execution.>
counter-factual
relevant fact is that what I said really is the convention.
