comment ConTeXt equivalent of latexdiff
\protect reinstates the common catcodes, see its definition. Generally it is not safe to redefine but if you do make sure you don’t load any modules after that. You could try replacing the \protect calls in the generated code (but not in Context code) with \unexpanded or \normalprotected).

comment (ConTeXt) Changing to garamond or other typefaces
Which Garamond font are you using? Afaict the minimals don’t ship with an official typescript for any of the Garamond variants, so it’s no wonder your example fails. If you are lucky, Wolfgang may have one ready for you edition in his typescript collection. Else in order to write a typescript more information is needed: which file contains which face etc.

comment ConTeXt equivalent of latexdiff
Could you expand your question as to how exactly the tool you mention works differently from common diff? Context users might not be familiar with Latex specific programs.

comment \placeongrid and \moveongrid not working in ConTeXt
For some reason it is not mentioned in the manual that you do in fact need \setuplayout[grid=yes] (or strict or verystrict) to activate snapping in the first place. What do you mean when you say you do not intend to use it? Btw. here is some additional documentation in the details doc and on the wiki in case you missed it.

comment \placeongrid and \moveongrid not working in ConTeXt
1. have you read the grid related instructions in the reference? 2. \moveongrid is mkii only, if you think you need it you will have to run your file through texexec. 3. kpathsea is linked into LuaTeX. It is, however, unnecessary and even disabled in Context (mkiv) so afaict the warning shouldn’t hurt.

comment ConTeXt: How to adjust the space before and after a section with respect to gridset
1. [after={\blank[...]}]. 2. It inserts a vertical blank of the size of a line. 3. Try this solution.

Possibly related question: how to switch fonts via language switches. Are you primarily interested in a font or a hyphenation switch?

+1 for introducing me to the “paragraphs” mechanism.

comment What is the correct syntax for subfootnote?
@Village What, as exactly as possible, do you mean by “recently”? From the commit log I guess the bug was introduced when the note mechanism underwent the update from mkiv to mkvi earlier this year. This is when the code was changed that now fails. Unfortunately I cannot test this as the older versions of the format don’t build anymore.
