I don't see how it could be seen I was saying that. I thought I was clearly saying that misleading comments are the fault of the person who wrote them and not the thought of comments in the first place. The original controversial thought was that comments were too annoying to be useful, my reaction was that was blaming the tool instead of the person misusing the tool.

To answer your question, a misleading comment should of course be removed or changed. Again, I fail to see how I was suggesting otherwise.
