States and phases are generally the same thing (e.g. states of matter vs phases of matter). I've switched back and forth between state, stage and phase at various times, though, so the PEP is currently internally inconsistent. If there are any leftover "state" and "stage" references, it's just a mistake since "phase" is the terminology I finally settled on.
