I don't know what constitutes "sane", but I literally just downloaded and installed it right now because you mentioned it, and it choked on a trivial hello world:

  $ mtxrunjit --script context doc.tex
  ...
  > tex error on line 1 in file doc.tex: ! Undefined control sequence
  ...
  1 >>  \documentclass{article}
  2     \begin{document}Hello, world\end{document}

I feel like this is gonna be a tougher sell than you expect. How the heck is a user expected to switch to ConTeXt?

You wrote a LaTeX document. ConTeXt does not claim to be compatible with LaTeX.

You can find a "hello world" here: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Document_layout_and_layers/Tu...

LaTeX is not ConTeXt.

Both use TeX as their layout engine. Both are different type of markup languages that live on top of TeX.

How did you install ConTeXt? Because "mtxrunjit" shouldn't be included in any modern versions.
