I understand that, but for someone new to ConTeXt, the behaviour of \whatever after a \definewhatever is unexpected. Especially so if one is used to LaTeX. The same is true for the non-implied start of a new column in \startable after a new row has been declared. My experience so far with ConTeXt is that it is probably possible to do all the things I want to do (though I still have a couple of open issues, see other posts) and I still have the feeling it is very powerful (I already had that when I first read the manual years ago). But the error messages I get or the behaviour I see when I make my beginner mistakes are less illuminating than the LaTeX parts and the behaviour is also not always friendly (e.g. the \NC needed after a new row in \starttable) or intuitive or the same across diffferent parts of ConTeXt (\startitemize versus \startwhatever). And it sometimes very difficult to find documentation (directory structure, \starttable).
