It's actually a valid answer. Once the object becomes invisible, it's position tracking might be started to check if X position is out of viewport range. It might be a coroutine, it might be done in Update(). However, just because precision here doesn't change anything, running Coroutine once per second might do it just enough.

Missing back-tick was making the formatting look wrong

Doesn't this still leave a period of doubt, if the object is off the top of the screen but has not yet crossed xMin or xMax? In that case, it might be coming back (if its x velocity is low enough), or it might not (if its x velocity is high enough).
