What does "The elemental creature is controlled" mean in game terms.
--------------------------------------
Looking at the similarly worded Command Undead feat it says:
Failure: The undead creature becomes a minion under your control. The spell gains a duration of 1 minute, but it is dismissed if you or an ally attacks the minion undead.
Command Elemental just says:
Failure The elemental creature is controlled or slowed as long as you Sustain the impulse, up to 1 minute. This effect ends if you or an ally attacks the elemental.
--------------------------------------
Minion is well defined in game terms. "Controlled" does not seem to be.

Controlled is a condition; you can find it in the CRB on page 618 I believe or on Archives of Nethys here.
