They can't terminate flight following if the aircraft hasn't reported
the field in sight?


Well, sure, of course they can. They can terminate it whenever they want.
I had assumed that my sighting the field was the trigger for ending it --
because then I'd be ready to switch to the tower or CTAF.

And if I had any doubt about my ability to find the airport, then I'd
certainly want to keep flight following going until I *did* have the field
in sight.
