Note that you can load expl3 with *\input expl3-generic\relax* in both 
plain TeX and ConTeXt and it will just work for the most part. As the 
LaTeX3 Interface Documentation says 
<http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/l3kernel/interface3.pdf>:

> The fundamental programming code can also be loaded with other TeX 
formats, subject to restrictions on the full range of functionality. 

In my opinion, this is entirely too modest of the LaTeX team to say. I have 
used expl3 in library code that runs with both plain TeX and ConTeXt and 
all works as expected with the exception of some minor issues with the 
*l3file* module in ConTeXt (now fixed 
<https://github.com/latex3/latex3/pull/1114>).
