Until we learn definitively from users that the current implementation of
commenting/uncommenting in other tools is not working, we should use what
is common practice. We can use that as a baseline and then if we learn that
there needs to be another shortcut, we can add additional functionality.
It's much easier to add something for users than to take away.
