Temperature
Absolute zero is the temperature at which there is no energy left in the system.
Are these two separate definitions, because the derivative being zero does not imply the function to be zero.

If you flip the magnetic field they will be in an unstable state and therefore all flip, perhaps completely randomly, so as to produce the infinite temperature you speak of.
The entire point of this experiment was to keep the unstable state, stable, which they call negative temperature.
To prove Bell's Theorem you simply assume a single other hidden variable exists, perhaps signifying if the particle is actually spin up or spin down before you measure it. This assumption contradicts quantum mechanics and therefore cannot be true, so there is nothing else you can know about the system if quantum mechanics is the correct description.
If simply one more variable produced this result, I do not see how adding infinitely many more variables would help, or be of any practical use as a theory of nature.
If I take droppings from a bunch of individual chickens, put them together, cook them a little, and then sell them as "Chicken derived high-fiber compound", I can't very well lie to you and tell you that I'm not selling you shit.
