Really? I wouldn't see it this way. I wondered a bit about the number of primitives shown in the document of Joaquín, but that they are used certainly doesn't make context like plaintex.
I have calculated the number of primitives from the list made in "TeX Reference Manual" by David Bausum (of which there is a web version at https://www.tug.org/utilities/plain/cseq.html).
According to that text the number of primitives is exactly 326. In my document I rounded it to "approximately 300".
