I am quite aware of the topic of conversation..i was merely responding to your quote. The use of the word “until” does not necessarily mean that something happened after that...hence my quote...

If 'until' does not mean 'until' then what does it mean?

"Yu Darvish pitched the baseball game against the Nationals UNTIL Joakim Soria came in for the closing save in the 9th inning."

We know from the above Yu Darvish did not finish the game because Soria came in the 9th to finish the game.

"Yu Darvish pitched TO (UNTO) the end of the game earning the win."

There is the difference in the passage you cited. One has something not finite and one does.
