Have you even taken a look at the output of my example?

I still think my version looks better (even with bold Latin Modern).
\definefontfamily [slantedbookman] [rm] [TeX Gyre Bonum]
[sl={style:regular,features:{*,slanted}},
bs={style:bold,features:{*,slanted}}]
\definefontfamily [modernbookman] [rm] [TeX Gyre Bonum]
[sl={file:lmromanslant10-regular},
bs={file:lmromanslant10-bold}]
% \definefontfamily [modernbookman] [rm] [TeX Gyre Bonum]
% [sl={file:lmromanslant10-regular,features:{*,boldened}},
% bs={file:lmromanslant10-bold,features:{*,boldened}}]
\starttext
\setupbodyfont [slantedbookman]
\it italic \sl slanted \bi bolditalic \bs boldslanted
\setupbodyfont [modernbookman]
\it italic \sl slanted \bi bolditalic \bs boldslanted
\stoptext
