> I ask because i find myself (and others) placing comments around blocks.

Can you please clarify? I don't understand what placing comments has to do with 
blocks (not) allowing strings as arguments.

E.g. I can write a comment currently too:
    
    
    block outer: # here's a comment
      for i in 1 .. 5:
        for j in 10 .. 15:
          if i > 1:
            break outer # this can be commented too
          echo i*j
    
    
    Run
