FWIW setting `comment-use-syntax-ppss` to nil is likely make things
*slower* in many cases.

This "newish" variable was only introduced so as to have an escape hatch
if it turned out that the new functionality of relying on syntax-ppss
proved problematic.

Given that I haven't seen a single incident reported since that fateful
Dec 12 2017 night, I think we'd be better off removing
`comment-use-syntax-ppss` altogether.
