The best way to switch to a smaller size is \tx and still smaller \txx
Those also adapt to \bf, \sl etc.

TeX takes the values valid at \par time. And the } end the group before
that.
Anyway, the baselineskip will always be wrong.
\setupbodyfont[12pt] \tx
will produce consistent baselineskip with the main font size.
You can of course say \tx \setupinterlinespace to get an adapted
baselines.
The more appropriate way to switch (everything, math also) to a smaller
size is:
\switchtobodyfont[small]
Beware *NOT* to use \setupbodyfont there because that one changes the
overall document appearance, while \switchto.. acts local.
