TikZ does the following:

That was just copy-pasted from TikZ source (I have not been asking
that; my diagnosis/question/suggestion was about
\let\pgfu...@font@normalfont=\rm and \let\pgfu...@selectfont=\rm that
should probably be changed to \tf) but since you have answered ...
I think that it was desired to use something even smaller. In LaTeX there is:
\tiny 5
\scriptsize 7
\footnotesize 8
\small 9
\normalsize 10
so one can choose 4 smaller sizes. In ConTeXt there is apparently (I
never had to use so tiny sizes, so I never checked the details):
\definebodyfontenvironment
[10pt]
[\s!text=10pt,\s!script=7pt,\s!scriptscript=5pt,
\c!x=8pt,\c!xx=6pt,\c!big=12pt,\c!small=8pt]
I suspect that the author wanted to have something even smaller than
\tfxx (or better: 4 smaller sizes instead of just the current two),
most probably that would be scriptscript, just that it needs a special
treatment. (\switchtobodyfont[scriptscript] works to get 5pt in 10pt
regime, but I'm not sure about the most efficient way.)
i don't know either ... personally i'd use a model that is tight to
graphic dimensions (as baseline alignments are also an issue)
anyway, the latex and context font models are too different to bother
too much about mapping
