Slightly confused about the thread title - Governing.
Governing suggests that the engine is being controlled by one of the Governors ( speed or temperature or pressure) as opposed by being on FADEC control.
There's a difference between controlled and limited-by

There are many examples, but what's best for the pilot and the installation dictates what does what. To maintain safe operation (not blow up or stall its guts out) limits are selected in the control.

As covered in other threads, opening bleeds results in decreasing efficiency in the engine which in many controls causes more fuel and higher temp needed for the same thrust, assuming that no limits are exceeded
