Well, it's a matter of

sulPont = -\single \spToNatSpan \startTextSpan
stopSulPont = -\endTextSpan

And then you use \sulPont and \stopSulPont where you now use
\startTextSpan and \stopTextSpan .  I find that more straightforward
than what you use but of course it is slightly less efficient.  But
probably not a measurable difference.
