Thank you very much Wolfgang! But, there is still somethin= g weird going on with the font. I updated the files on Drive. Please see li= ne 19, the last word "and". It is clearly out of alignment with t= he gid. I tested the alignment in MP and it should work, ie 2 characters ar= e indeed one grid cell (semms from the fact that IBM Plex Mono was designed= from a typewriter typeface where 12 characters are exactly 1 inch long).

Quick and dirty:

\setuplayout
=C2=A0=C2=A0 [...,
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 topspace=3D\dimexpr5\measured{base}+2bp+\strutdp\relax,<= br> =C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 ...]

Change the text alignment:

\setupalign[flushleft,broad]
