Except that is not the kind of thing ConTeXt users are supposed to mess
with, I feel guilty every time I mess with catcodes in my
Thanks. Now I have my own little sacrilege in the environment file.

The use of (which is a common symbol) as a control character is a long
standing idiosyncrasy of TeX that I'm glad ConTeXt has got rid of.

It was never a problem in TeX to modify the control characters used according
to your own pleasure. For me, the problem is now to change the 200+ occurrences
of start/stopaligns distributed over dozens of files to the politically correct
syntax.

Here's a backward-compatibility hack that works on your minimal example. Maybe
it will save the dozens of files without changing all the s:
\let\oldstartalign=\startalign
\let\oldstopalign=\stopalign
\let\oldbs=\\
\def\startalign{\catcode`=4\let\\=\cr\oldstartalign}
