For me, using the "@@comment:..@@" syntax gives exactly the same
results as using "# ..." (an extra blank line in the output).  Of
course I can do something like "#+LaTeX: % ..." which will work, but
then the convenience of being able to quickly comment and uncomment
lines is lost.

Regardless of what the current org syntax is defined as, I am trying
to argue that it is counter-intuitive, and also makes doing useful
things difficult.
