Hello,

Then I, for one, am not in the "everyone" part. FWIW, I think comments
are a minor part of Org and that we're just bikeshedding.

This question is too vague.

What is the difference between an empty line and the way they are
treated actually? More importantly, where, precisely, comments should be
allowed to appear in an Org buffer?

IOW, you need to define exactly what a comment should be in Org, first,
if the current definition doesn't suit you (or someone else willing to
change it). Then, we'll know where the pitfalls are.
