Minor Black Bars and Grey Stripes D/P/Pt

There is something simple but not so noticable on D/P/Pt however it may only exist on Platinum:

In Platinum's pokemon league walk inside and walk exactly two paces up and then look at the bottom left corner and you will notice a grey stripe, is this just a loading problem or is it a hidden object for managing events in the room?

The grey stripe continues to appear on that corner until walking an extra 3-4 steps up.
There may be examples of stripes like these in other parts of the game.

Just tested it, it's real all right.  My question is though…What exactly IS it?

I have no idea, probably just a line that seperates two layers like how the ground and the sea are on different layers in this game.

I just found out that if you move eastward, the line starts to look like this: |__  Kinda weird eh?

I just tested it on Diamond and it's not there…  :???: (Must only be for Platinum)

Yes most likely, apparantly they changed the way new map data is read on Platinum to stop the Tweaking Glitch, however a slightly new engine probably caused some more but more minor glitches.
