50°C sounds like normal temperature with regular load. That means the
fan will be switched on most of the time when the board is used.

And this change may be put in regard with the other trip points in the
common DT. For instance, enable the fan when reaching 80°C but set the
passive trip point to 75°C instead of 85°C.

All that depends on the hardware characteristics and TDP which are in
the TRM normally.
