No. When I was talking of the order of a group based on an EC, I was not
talking of an EC over a finite field.

So it is over an infinite field. Q?

Look up "torsion group".

Now, all points except those in the torsion group (max order 12)
have INFINITE order.

I thought it made it clear that the computations are done with the curve
E(A,B)/N where N is not a prime.

E(A,B) mod N where N is composite does not even form an
Elliptic Curve.
