I think the tricky part is that students during a particular day have to very much crunch or limit the amount of information they take in when jumping between subject to subject.

They don't have the time, attention spans or memory to be able to take in both the contextualization and to understand the formulas. After all it's only the formulas' that really matter in the end when performing the calculations in test/exams when you have to show your working out. I also find that I can understand the contextual quite easily but it's another thing to then apply it through formulas.

This is coming from a non-teacher but past student.

At University I had more time to think about the contextuals during my degree, but not in high school jumping from subject to subject.
