Yup, agreed that retracting/deleting the comment is similarly unlikely to achieve much.
Certainly, none of that activity is likely to clarify anything, since few people read comments after they've been downvoted below threshold. If anything, it's more likely confuse/obscure the record, as I mentioned.
I dunno, it just seems starkly obvious to me that this is patently untrue given it didn't stop getting downvotes after it slipped below the display threshold. Although, it was the only comment on this post at the time, so maybe that had something to do with it.
Agreed on both counts.
