The global settings for mixedcolumns are

   \setupmixedcolumns
     [maxwidth=\makeupwidth]

which forces columns to use the width of the textblock but boxedcolumns uses 
this

   \definemixedcolumns
     [boxedcolumns]
     [maxwidth=\availablehsize]

where the width of the columns depends on the available width of the 
environment,
e.g. in a narrower environment or in a frame the you get shorter columns.
