spend half an hour trying to find any issue tracking "do not reformat my comments" with rustc. first one i find on the subject https://github.com/rust-lang/rustfmt/issues/6497#issuecomment-2711705405

Thanks for the report. I'm fairly certain this is a duplicate, but I can't find the issue right now

marks as duplicate regardless
