Did I go past Pineville and wind up in Rock Hill, or did I go all the way through Charlotte and find myself in Pineville? >> Ooh, good one! I'd say you were tooling south on I77 well over the SC line. I take {za'o} to mean over-completion of the the described event -"He kept on building the hosue" means he kept building after the house was done. So here you keep going after Pineville is passed. Of course and on the other hand, {za'o} is the sumti tcita to mark the "natural end" that is o'ershot and, since it is not so used here, we might assume that the natural end was implicit and wwhat we are given is the actual end. But I think it is equally likely, and fits in better with what went before, to hold that the st is not used here because the natural end is given already.
