You don’t have to use \dimexpr because the measure macros already us it.

There is only a “outermargin”  key but not “outermargindistance”.

The space before the image isn’t fixed when you use \setuplayout[grid=yes] because ConTeXt has to change it to ensure the text after the floats stays on the page.

%\setuplayout[grid=yes] % uncomment to see how the space before the images changes

\showframe

\starttext

\chapter{Test}

\placefigure[top]{Dummy}{\externalfigure[dummy]}

\input tufte

\stoptext
