When you define a new command with \definedescription, e.g. \definedescription[definition] you get the commands
\definition

\startdefinition
Both are only shortcuts for \dodescription[definition] and \dostartdescription[definition], as you can see the internal command tells context that it’s dealing with a description and “definition” is only the name of the instance.

I guess my confusion is why do you need to call \definedescription when you just want a \definition to typeset? Shouldn't the command already be available?
When there would be a predefined description command I would prefer \description and \startdescription but not \definition but it’s hard to say which command should be available by default everyone has a different opinion. Wolfgang
