The font is buggy, I made a example which doesn’t require the simplefonts module
and you can see that you need large ex value to see a difference in the linespacing.

\starttypescript[serif][crimson]
    \setups[font:fallback:serif]
    \definefontsynonym[Serif][file:crimsonroman][features=default]
\stoptypescript

\definetypeface[crimson][rm][serif][crimson][default]

\setupbodyfont[crimson]

\setupinterlinespace[line=10ex]

\starttext
\input knuth
\stoptext

What you can do is to send a bug report to the designers of the font.
