Actually, the only difference is the temp > trip and the temperature < 
last_temperature. It results in the STABLE trend and the governor does 
nothing.

With the core trend function for the same inputs, temperature < 
last_temperature results in a DROPPING but as temp > trip the 'throttle' 
boolean is true in the governor, and get_next_state() with DROPPING + 
throttle=true, results in nothing because the action happens when 
throttle=false.

All the combinations result at end at the same action from the governor.
