Tom - more data for you.  I did clean setup.py installs of 4.2.0 and 
4.3.0b3 and then used wee_extension to install the weewx-nmea-xdr 
installation.  The resulting stanza added to weewx is different.  The beta 
strips all comments.  The 4.2.0 behavior is far better even if it did miss 
comments at the root level as you mentioned later in the thread in 
weewx-users (link) <https://groups.google.com/g/weewx-user/c/1-GaFz5jsxE>

(beta 3)
======
# Options for extension 'xdr'
[XDR]
    port = /dev/ttyACM0
    baudrate = 9600
    timeout = 5
    max_packets = 5
    [[sensor_map]]
        pressure = P
        outTemp = C

(4.2.0)
=====
# Options for extension 'xdr'
[XDR]
    # The port where the NMEA source is located. Default is '/dev/ttyACM0'
    port = /dev/ttyACM0
    # Its baudrate. Default is '9600'.
    baudrate = 9600
    # How long to wait for an XDR packet before giving up. Default is 5 
seconds.
    timeout = 5
    # Max number of NMEA packets to process during a LOOP event. Default is 
5 packets
    max_packets = 5

    # Map from weewx names to sensor names. Only these types will be 
processed.
    # Typical sensor map:
    [[sensor_map]]
        pressure = P
        outTemp = C
