Based on the logic of this proecudre, here I interpret the word TRANSIT, as any time period that the airplane stays on ground at mentioned condition. However some people interprets this word is as the flight state where Transit CL steps are implemented. This sounds me very illogical as looking at the reason of this procedure is advised..

I am looking forward the comments from PPRUNE, where I beleive many more professionals exists than where I work.

You are obviously correct. Anytime the aircraft is on the ground it is in transit, regardless of the transit time, crew change or not, etc..
It's funny how people come up with those amazing theories.
