Well, they might if they're generating documentation from the comments.
Even then, it would usually only be a concern for API-type functions,
which means a fairly small share of a typical codebase.

The original post is kind of weird, though, in that its author's idea of
what it easy to type seems to be based on writing code out on a
typewriter. Maybe a Teletype without a C-savvy editor program.

Be well.
