I don't understand. You added something to the file, but not between the comments? Can you share a copy of this file / or at least a screenshot.
The comments (and the full copy of the original unit file) are actually there to make it easier when editing an override. I'd like to better understand your comments regarding the bad ergonomics. How would you make it differently?

Ok, I didn't read the comments and just added the line I needed, and of course it didn't work. Sorry for the noise; the ergonomics aren't great but I should have known better.
