I know there are cases where changing the height/depth ration can help
but in this case the problem is caused by \strut which is bigger for the
italic font.
A way to fix the wrong spacing here is to add a strut option to
\setuplist (or use always the upright font to set the strut values).

Also possible because the larger value for the ex-height of the italic
font causes the bigger strut dimensions.
