You are not describing what is the goal of this change.

IIUC, the resulting change will be an on/off action. The thermal zone is
mitigated with the highest cooling effect, so the lowest OPP, then the
temperature trend is stable until it goes below the trip - margin where
the mitigation is stopped.

Except, I'm missing something, setting a trip point with a 10000
hysteresis and a cooling map min/max set to the highest opp will result
on the same.
