Don't bracket them, and the blank command parameters also play a role (to
over-ride the \high command, in case you have superior figures, for example).

Also, keep in mind that the particular font switches you chose are not
very visible in LMR with a single '1' character. Try:

\setupfootnotes[style=italic,textcommand=,command=,textstyle=boldslanted]

Au contraire, Hans gave footnote styles a big overhaul last summer, iirc.
