This is something only Hans can answer, what I wanted to show you is
that the problem isn’t related to the \definefontfamily command.

Is there any real purpose for this feature? The letters in the second and third
line don’t look beautiful because the horizontal and vertical strokes don’t match.
\definefontfeature [wide] [extend=1.50]
\definefontfeature [narrow] [extend=0.75]
\definefontfamily [one] [serif] [Latin Modern Roman]
\definefontfamily [two] [serif] [Latin Modern Roman] [features={default,wide}]
\definefontfamily [three] [serif] [Latin Modern Roman] [features={default,narrow}]
\definebodyfontenvironment[50pt]
\starttext
\switchtobodyfont[one,50pt]Stretched
\switchtobodyfont[two,50pt]Stretched
\switchtobodyfont[three,50pt]Stretched
\stoptext
