Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Hi there, thanks for the ticket!

 Replying to [comment:1 edent]:
 > Similarly, there's an unnecessary `<!-- #respond -->` at
 [https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/69ced2eb1fc85ec5e106384b48c8015c77468402
 /wp-includes/comment-template.php#L2901 comment-template.php#L2901]

 Introduced in [14092] / #13016.

 Personally, I don't see any harm in keep these comments as is, they seem
 helpful to determine which element the closing tag corresponds to,
 especially with multiple `</div>` or `</ul>` tags on the page.
