Seems thermal to me.   A start-up is hot, high-energy, even reckless, and bounces all over the place in the hopes of finding a profitable business model.   A mature company makes more conservative moves and prefers to be cold.   If it has to heat things up it will, but generally uses lawyers and IP law to prevent competition rather than letting the bounds of the competition become hard to predict.
