Yes, that did the trick!  Thanks!

It turns out that the extra whitespace before and after the section 
headers in the body appears when I put \startcolumns[n=2] before the 
body text and \stopcolumns after it.  Here's the MWE, just slightly 
modified from your example:


 begin example
[...]
 end example


The old columns environment was replaced a while ago with the newer 
(although available since a few years) mixedcolumns environment.


A big difference between the old columns code and new code is that the 
new code relies on a page grid which can lead to extra lines in the 
output, because ConTeXt adds extra space to put text on the grid.


When you don't care about the grid you can disable it for the columns 
environment but this has to be done also for headers which have their 
own grid option.


Another option is to try the pagecolumns environment, which is another 
environment for multi columns text but it's a very recent addition and 
lacks some features like column balancing.


 begin columns
\setuphead
  [chapter,section,subsection,subsubsection]
  [before={\blank[nowhite]},
   after={\blank[nowhite]},
   grid=no]

\setupwhitespace

all those went back to way too much white space between paragraphs.

Any ideas?


Do you have a working minimal example for the problem because when I run 
the following example on my machine there is no extra whitespace.


 begin example
\setuphead
  [chapter,section,subsection,subsubsection]
  [before={\blank[nowhite]},
   after={\blank[nowhite]}]

\setupwhitespace
  [medium]

%\showgrid

\starttext

[NTG-context] LMTX running on macOS Catalina; fuzzy paragraphs; unwanted whitespace

What's that mean?

However, the PDF has unwanted whitespace in many areas.

   - It has unwanted whitespace between the entries in the Table of
   Contents.
   - It has unwanted whitespace before and after section headings, despite
   me having "before={},after={}" in the \setuphead commands for all the
   levels of sections.
   - And it had a large unwanted white space between paragraphs until I
   \setupwhitespace[none]. I'd prefer a little bit of white space between
   paragraphs, but I tried \setupwhitespace[0.5ex] and
   \definemeasure[between][0.25ex] with \setupwhitespace[\measure{between}],
   and \setupwhitespace[5pt] but all those went back to way too much white
   space between paragraphs.
