You can use \switchtobodyfont to change the size for certain parts of a text
but it’s best to keep this to a minimum because \tfa etc. are a  lot faster.

The reason why you don’t need \setupinterlinespace when you use
\switchtobodyfont is that \setupinterlinespace is already called by
\switchtobodyfont.

Another thing which shouldn’t be forgotten is that \switchtobodyfont
controls and changes the sizes for \tfa etc.
