I'm not sure if I agree with the low taxes. My experience is that the governor mostly get good traits by collecting low taxes. First of all, he becomes chivalrous, he also gets some traits that says he's fair to the population or something like that. My governors always make sure the cities earn more than a city without a governor this way.

I agree with the "too high" tax point of yours though. If I want to tax a city's population with very high taxes, I make sure not to have a governor there.
