Thanks for the headsup. I can fixup v3 when I respin.

However, I've always interpreted this binding as follows:
- cooling-maps should be mandatory for active and passive trip types
otherwise there will be no cooling
- cooling-maps make no sense for critical trip type since we're
invoking system shutdown
- cooling-maps are optional for hot trip types.

Is this your understanding too?

We should be able to enforce this in YAML.
