I get the problem, but not this solution. It's too specific and of zero other value, yet not even exactly specific to the issue. We definitely don't want --no-extension-comments, but --no-comments removes ALL comments just to solve a weird problem. (Meta)Data loss, surely?
It was argued, successfully IMO, to have this capability independent of any particular problem to be solved. In that context I haven't given the proposed implementation much thought.
I do agree that this is a very unappealing solution for the stated problem and am hoping someone will either have an ingenious idea to solve it the right way or is willing to hold their nose and put in a hack.
