Well, someone might agree with wedrifid (that second-order comments are to be voted on normally) but still disapprove of his comment for reasons other than disagreement (for example, think it clarifies what would otherwise have been a valuable point of confusion), and downvote (normally) on that basis.

Okay, given the confusion, I've retracted my downvote. I've also seen a comment get about 27 karma on this thread replying to another post, and that comment was certainly not massively irrational, so I assume we vote normally if it's not a first-order comment.

I'm not actually sure why there was ever confusion. From the OP: "comment voting works normally for comment replies to other comments."
