Pardon me please, what exactly is "un-START" and where can I read about it?
Toggling this patch boots TWL_FIRM (DS mode) and, if you use the secret menu, AGB_FIRM (GBA mode) with their native resolution without having to keep START or SELECT pressed while booting, which is the default behaviour. This is good for people that want to avoid any scaling whatsoever.
Pretty much this. The only thing I'll add is that un-START doesn't fully disable the functionality, it just inverts it. So if you want to temporarily turn on scaled mode, you hold START *and* SELECT as opposed to holding START *or* SELECT without the patch to disable scaling.
