Deactivating leaven

A question to the Gaon Shlita, Rambam wrote (1:1, “Lead and Matzah 59”): And the Sages forbade eating leaven from the beginning of the sixth hour, etc., therefore, a terumah is made with it, and so on. Of leaven that is holy, one does not eat it or burn it until the sixth hour arrives, and everything is burned, etc. And see the MMM, from the source of the Rambam from the G.M. in Pesachim (11:2) in the Matani. And Maran HaGirizi explains in this regard that the fifth hour is only a prohibition of eating leaven from the Sabbath, and not burning a terumah because of the observance of my offerings, and only at the sixth hour, which is also a prohibition of heftza on leaven from the Sabbath, and here is the observance of my offerings, and one must burn the leaven. And it is also clear from this, in the same way as the Maimonides (ibid., 53:4): It is customary for a fourteenth day to be on Shabbat, and he had many loaves of terumah, and one must burn it on the Sabbath, therefore [its origin is from Mittani in the Book of Pesachim (page 44), Damboer Minya, in the Book of Pesachim, even when there is a prohibition of eating leaven from the Sabbath, and burning it already on the 13th day of Nisan], and indeed in the Book of Pesachim (page 13) and in the Book of Tesachim (ibid.) it is implied that this is a disagreement between the two Mishnayot, and thus how does the Maimonides rule that you are a priest in the two Mishnayot, which are An apparent contradiction.

I didn’t understand the problem. When everything is said to be done on Shabbat, it is early for the sixth day, and therefore all the laws of the Sabbath of the leaven that apply according to the sixth hour apply already on the sixth. If it is not burned on the sixth day, the leaven will remain with it during the hours of prohibition itself on Pesach (on Shabbat after the sixth hour). One could say that the HaGal imposed a prohibition on the leaven already on the sixth day, but there is really no need for that. It is enough to deactivate it so that during the hours when there is a prohibition on the leaven, it will already be deactivated.
Similarly, according to the rabbinic law, in the words of Terumat, regarding lighting a Hanukkah candle, even if it goes out before sunset, it is not needed because the light has already been lit from the beginning.
