There is no harm in sending back an empty array for comments that have<br>
no meta data.<br>
<br>
Have you benchmarked these different approaches to determine that it<br>
would double the response time? I don't think it will dramatically<br>
increase the over head, but I'd be curious to see test results. After<br>
for sites that cache data I think it the difference will be very, very<br>
small.<br>
