Well, the moderation comments are a special case. They're out-of-band feedback signals. In case it helps, they're even more tedious to write than they are to read. Yes they break the guidelines too, in the way that many medicines are toxic, but one uses them when there's no better alternative.
Alas, the system doesn't fix this without moderation. It hasn't yet become self-correcting [1], which is why I'm still doing it [2].
