For what it's worth, the MKIV way to switch to bold face is \bold{text} instead of {\bf text} but it also doesn't fix your problem because neither of the two start a new paragraph before the first letter and therefore \the\everypar is still inside a group. The normal switch to use bold style is \bf and \bold{...} (or {\bold ...}) is only a alternative switch which uses \bf to change the font. The same applies to \italic{...}, \mono{...} etc. BUT, \bold{...}, \italic{...} export (to xhtml, etc.) whereas {\bf ...}, {\it ...} do not. Are you sure? Also, \setuphighlight [emphasis] [style=bold] and \emphasis{...} is a *functionally* better way of formatting text. It depends on the document size, for a simple letter \bf etc. is enough but for a bigger document it make sense.
