I will admit I was surprised a long time ago when I first saw that $$
compiles; I've been using that for so long I don't know where I originally
saw that it worked. (Maybe TikZ does something heavy-handed to make sure
you don't try to do display math inside a node.) I could output the code
without it, but I wanted to make the TikZ as easy to (post-)edit by hand as
possible. (Which comes at the cost of having spurious math-on/math-off
characters.)
When you have $$ in a \hbox they are handled as inline math.
\starttext
\hbox{$$}% == $ $
\stoptext
