It's probably a easier way to say Kaguya is sealed away and will not return, that probably justifies the Ninja world as "Dead".

Hidan for what I know, was still probably alive for a day, and had to die from mulnutrition, but how many days would that take? Since the average ninja is kind of supernatural in all senses of a human, he'll probably survive just a little longer than a human, inside the dirt. But as I've said, they considered Shikamaru killing Hidan as with those conditions, even though he is still living under the ground.

And I think if you relate how Kaguya was sealed away, and how Orochimaru was absorbed into Sasuke, they were both considered dead, or sometimes reffered as defeated. None of the Hebi members questioned Sasuke's victory over Orochimaru and the status of him killing Oro with this.

So, I guess 'ending' someone like sealing them is in a way, finishing or killing them off.
