It is my (maybe flawed) understanding that these two are mutually exclusive. Is a Framework always included statically?

If you plan on distributing your library as binary only be aware that an app can only contain one K/N framework. Most people distribute binaries using the klib format which allows for combining multiple klibs into an umbrella framework to be used by an app.
