About 20 years ago I saw a programmer use a similar method. Like your
observation, it seemed to work as they were Equated variables and not
available in the debugger.
This programmer also felt that the program would compile faster by having
all of the comment lines after the last logical END. Somehow he felt that
the miniscule time that the compiler spent not compiling a comment line
within the program was worth the time for another programmer (me) to
constantly have to print the commented section just to get the narrative on
the different code sections.

That probably stemmed from familiarity with an interpreted BASIC rather
than a compiled one...
