The approach ends when the crew selects reverse or selects TOGA. After that the aircraft has either landed or is going-around. But there are only two outcomes to an approach: landing or going around! (not counting crashing ok...)

With regard to cat 3b: landing rollout... Not approach rollout!

Lets not start confusing words here just to sound like smart-a****. For taxying there is a separate word... Taxying! Then there is also parking...

Is this a serious question??? Nobody thinks the work is done after the approach do they? Threats are different in every situation, so don't suddenly treat a cat3b approach the same as low-vis taxying.
