The function returns true for all states that have a control process running, and each time we call it that's what we want to know, hence let's rename it accordingly. Moreover, the more generic unit states have an ACTIVE state, and it is defined quite differently from the set of states this function returns true for, hence let's avoid confusion and not reuse the word "ACTIVE" here in a different context. Finally, let's uppercase this, since in most ways it's pretty much identical to a macro
