1. Don’t use * in your setups names because names starting with an asterisk are system modes.

2. To load the defaults settings you have to use \setups[*reset] which needs the asterisks because it’s a system mode.

3. The settings doesn’t help because in the lines environment each line is a separate paragraph which makes \widowpenalty useless here.
