Why did you set "ConTeXt Full" as your default command? The above
'setq' introduces "ConTeXt" command to process a context file. When I
said that everything is OK I meant that I did C-c C-c, checked that in
minibuffer the "ConTeXt" command is chosen and then hit Enter.

I don't know why you get "damaged" pdf file (in fact how do you know
that file is damaged?) but "TEXMFCNF" is special variable that I uses to
tweak TeX Live configuration for my latex workflow but context
(standalone and from TL) refuses to work if this variable is set (in
terminal I do 'unset' while in Emacs I set its value to 'nil' because
this is identical to "unset" it). The "TEXROOT" variable I found in
update script, I'm not sure if context requires it to work but IMHO, it
is harmless. And the last variable "TEXMFCACHE" I use to force context
to use ~/.cache for "luatex-cache" directory and not "pollute" my home
directory (without it the "luatex-cache" directory will be created in
$HOME directory).

Not sure but I'll wait you answer about "ConTeXt Full" vs "ConTeXt" I
mentioned above.

I'm serious about thinking through all the possibilities before we
settle on anything.  All things have the advantages of their
disadvantages, and vice versa.
