Having written my Ph.D. in LaTeX and published couple of books in ConTeXT I can assure you, ConTeXt is surprisingly better suited for "scientific" texts (oops sorry, I just mean text with footnotes, bibliography, a couple of indexes, list of illustrations, definitions whatever) even if you disregard its typographic quality. That's of course my entirely subjective opinion.
