In MKIV, \preventmode does not work. It appears to do the opposite of what is intended, and enable the specified mode. It also does not prevent the explicit enablement of a mode (as can be seen by uncommenting the commented line in the MWE).
I have not tested it with MKII , where it might work. (Will ConTeXt online ever be restored?)
This goes back to TL14 and likely earlier.
Do I misunderstand what \preventmode should do, or have I misused it?
And why are there {curlies} instead of [squares] around the mode name in \doifmode and friends?
MWE, run context MWE.tex:
\starttext \preventmode[X] %\enablemode[X] \doifmode{X}{!} \stoptext
