form is used when the box appears in a subscript or other script, or inline in a piece of text.

Automatic, the display of UnderoverscriptBox[x, y, z] depends on x. If x is \[Sum], \[Product] or another form conventionally displayed with limits, then LimitsPositioning
True is effectively used. Otherwise, LimitsPositioning
False is used.
