Typo in commit msg: stoped -> stopped.

Also, I had to translate 'schizencephaly' when I realized this wasn't a weird
typo. It got translated to portuguese, and I still needed to look it up
to understand the meaning.

Look, I'm all up to use out of domain expressions/words in commit messages, but
this word is too niche to be used out of medical context, and some people (like
myself) will need to look it up the meaning. This goes against the idea of the
commit message giving a clear explanation of the change. I'll not discuss whether
the word is too "spicy" to be used or not because the previous point is good enough
to justify changing it. My suggestion is to use 'malformation' or 'corruption' instead.

The logic is OK, but the flag being called 'living' here is a bit counter-intuitive.
'failsafeShutdownTriggered' or anything more in line with what the flag represents
would be better.
