You load the simplefonts module but you don’t use it, instead you try to define a typescript the old.

This can work when your Cambria and Calibri fonts have names with the following system: CAMBRIA.ttf, CAMBRIAI.TTF etc.

When you want to use simplefonts to load the font you have to change your environment file to this:

\startenvironment env-fonts-simplefonts

\usemodule[simplefonts] % to get access to Calibri & Cambria, win ttf fonts

\setmainfont[Cambria]
\setsansfont[Calibri]

\setupbodyfont[10pt,sans]

\stopenvironment

BTW: I can give a talk about typescripts and font loading at the next conference when there is interest in this.
