:: <font color="greenorange">This issue has been addressed.</font>

*"Comments are often employed for these and related methods because they allow the use of syntax and lexical conventions that might otherwise conflict with those of the enclosing programming language. This is another sense in which it is helpful that compilers and interpreters "ignore" comments." If this is "another sense", then what was the first sense?
