I don't think it should be disabled since there is no space to save 
comments.
Historically, comments prove to be valid source of information corrections
and eliminating a way of communicating with users and visitors is 
counter productive.

Isolation is not good for the project.
Pulling off user and visitor ability to leave comments is not good for 
the project.
Editing spam and saving comments is not the same as isolationist "idea" 
of destructive turning off commenting.

Braging is not hepful.

A said, deleting content is not contributing and IS destructive.
Having way to save comments as valid history and way of communicating 
(as people while reading would like to leave comment and contribute to 
content if not editing it,
iv very valuable option.
