ex. in practices its easier to carry things in a backpack for longer then in your hands.
AFAIK only if you have a frame pack (per pg 218 of the core rules). I don't think I've ever played an RPG that gave that sort of reduction. You could implement a house rule to cover it, e.g. 10% weight reduction for something being carried if you and your players don't mind the increased book keeping that comes with two weights for every item.

Personally I'd be inclined to look at it the other way and assume that most things are already being carried most of the time anyway, either in a rucksack or a MOLLE pouch or in a pocket, etc, etc - the only thing being hand carried for any length of time is likely to be a weapon.

OK, got it. This is a semi educated guess but I think it may refer to the section on Attacks starting pg 142, i.e. whether you're taking a Hip Shot, Snap Shot, or Aimed Shot, some of which have penalties / bonuses.
