In principle, I would agree, however, the types of comments Claude writes are sometimes absurd. It will leave a 25 line comment above a variable talking about how in a debug session, it turned out that this value was too low, so it was increased on the current date to account for whatever. It will also leave giant comments like, reference security review from 2026-05-21. Even when that document is not committed
It will also inject a tons of information that it shouldn't. I do a lot of data pipelines and comments will be like, "this line is because there's 943,048,032 events in the blah table and it forms a conjunctive set with the 43,390,042 rows of the bar table..." but doesn't include the context that was run against a dev instance.
And if I don't catch these and remove the bad information, subsequent passes will flag those comments and get stuck on the fact that numbers don't match and start digging into that "problem" instead of staying on topic.
I have Sol do that for me and it does a decent job. When I ask Opus to rewrite its own prose the results are not much improved.
