Be careful, PlainTeX is a macropaackage, just as ConTeXt is. One must
distinguish PlainTeX commands from the TeX (and pdftex/luaTeX) primitives.
Although some PlainTeX commands work similarly to the ConTeXt
counterparts, you can rarely assume this. There are lots and lots more
examples. Better to just treat them as very distinct macropackages, with a
few commonly USED command names in common, but used to MENTION different
things.
Best wishes
