The comparison logic ignores comments as it's not considered part of an attribute's value, i.e. it's not significant (it's only for humans to read as metadata).
I find that approach flawed. If I send you an update that differs in parts humans will find interesting to read, and that you are going to *store*, ignoring it as part of the "has anything changed" check will do no good, and create friction at times. Ignoring bits that are *not stored* (like, whitespace normalizations, or possible uppercase/lowercase stuff on attribute names, etc.) makes sense to me. Emphasis on "not stored".
