Thank you for you extensive reply!

So maybe the difference between [1]
http://www.vicfirth.com/education/features/webrhythms/18.html
and [2] the ABC standard, is just that [1] takes as
unit of counting the base note of the tuplet (8ths in
this case), while [2] takes as unit of counting the
base note of the measure (4ths)?

Is this a reasonable conclusion?

I believe that cut time is 2/2 (one stress per
measure), while common time is indeed 4/4 (stress on
the first beat and secondary stress on the third one).
