as suggested, you may try to change the ht/dp ratio and cross your fingers that no ( ) are used (or math with superscript)

There is no math, that's for sure. But what do you mean by " that no ( ) are used" ?

there are normally the chars with most height and depth, so a few of them in different line are your worst nightmare when interlinespace is to little Hans

Hmm ... to avoid a nightmare, is there a chance to set something like

setupinterlinespace[line=9.8pt,height=.79,depth=.21]

only locally, only for these footnotes affected?
