I always feel like I'm losing my mind when reading LLM comments or prose for code. It's so esoteric and 'i-am-very-smart' and makes me feel like I'm not supposed to read the comments in the first place

Once, during an especially tedious review session, I told my agent something like "comments are not meant to demonstrate how well you understand the system, they are meant to help others understand the system". It felt like that helped.
