I looked a bit at the type-otf.tex file. At the beginning, it says something like "\starttypescriptcollection[examples]". Typescripts from this \start...\stop block work correctly (with the exception of Antykwa Torunska). Typescripts from the outside don't work (with the exception of Heros).
The \starttypescriptcollection command is only relevant if \preloadtypescripts is given. If that is not the case, you can forget about it immediately. (and in the other case it is still undocumented, but it should not matter)
Maybe I should mimick these definitions somehow? Still, the cases of Antykwa Torunska and Heros are mysterious to me.

The table 1.7 you mentioned is also a bit strange: it mentions palatino as "commercial".
You found a bug in the manual, I have corrected the table and uploaded a new version. Please let me know if it makes more sense now.
What I was aiming at was: how to (easily) use the fonts "shipped with ConTeXt" (i.e., the Minimals). I would expect them to be usable "out of the box"; if they are not, please consider this a bug report/feature request;). In fact, I would expect something like \useptypescript[pagella] \setupbodyfont[pagella] work for the whole collection in the Minimals.
The top-level typescripts provided by Hans are only examples. The typeface buildingblocks (from the tables in co-fonts.pdf) are all there, but the combination of those into typescripts (as in the top of type-otf and type-one) is generally left to the user.
(BTW, why is pagella called palatino etc? I guess that some aliases could also be default?)
