I also wonder when the final halving technically occurs. How is it programmed? Is there a hard stop, or does it stop when the reward is less than two satoshi and no more halving is possible?

yep each halving is just 1 bit less of the reward which the translates binary to decimal to a number you can recognise
the very last halving is where the final 1bit becomes 0

.. i understand your a newbie so i wont rip apart your other errors i found in your article, but enjoy learning about bitcoin. there is much to learn

And after 1 bit becomes 0 is the network programmed to stop 'dividing/cutting' it or will it forever divide 0 by 2 (only to get 0 again) every 210 000 blocks?

Well, I sincerely appreciate your mercy, but I would be grateful if you could rip them apart so I do not make them again...

divide binary 0 by 2?? you have no clue .. there is nothing to divide.. you cant divide a single binary bit.. learn math and computer science and physics

also i will tell you again.. each halving is not "divide by 2" at protocol level, its only divide by 2 conversationally at human level.. its instead remove a binary bit at the suffix end
its only conversationally for easy understanding at the display level of the human eye of a computer screen. translated into jargon of things like 'BTC divide by 2'
(and also lamely do 'integer or decimal divided by 2' in code of bad programmed apps that cant be bothered to program their app cleanly)
(apps that do integer or decimal divide by 2 can bug out and error out)
(so something some lazy programmed apps have 120 years to bug fix)

other conversational/display misunderstandings of bitcoin
much like the real rule that every 2016th block, the protocol retargets the difficulty to try to keep miners mining 2016 blocks at around a fortnight timescale.. the rule is not "ten min blocks" but it for conversation and display purpose is simplified to "10 min block"
