You're right, although ConText works on top of LuaTeX and one can use
Lua which is full-fledged programming language, but to me the the main
thing is "Pollen is a publishing system that helps authors make
functional and beautiful digital books." iow. high-quality web books,
while "ConTeXt is software for typesetting high-quality documents."
where PDF is the objective.
