Hi Hans
Thank you, I do not know.

Hans, This is very good point. Is it an exception for start/start/combination or a more general difference? In fact, what are the differences between \X{y} and \startX y\stopX? A while back I ran into some weird issues and I figured that the latter inserts an \endgraf or something like that in the end. Is that right?

It depends on usage, you can say: \defineframedtext [MyFrame] [frame=off, location=none, % try this background=MyFrame, width=6cm, height=fit, style=small] in which case you can use the start/stop but then in running text usage you loose positioning of the result you (probably no big deal in your case) think of the framed being aligned in a box when location is not 'none' and that box has textwidth so that's why you get the wide combination
