Comments, in general? Or comments similar to that?
I'm of the camp: Comments should explain what your code can't.
/// 3rd party library has a "bug" which requires this format
If you mean: Using that style of commenting for a single line of comments, then:
1) Almost every style guide I've seen would call that a bad practice. It should be fixed
2) In compiled languages, at least it has no impact as generally the compiler will drop comments.

No, I meant w/ doc-comments, it forces me to have a space on all (comment) lines below the start, yet doesn't align the top (starting) line.
Refer to what I sent in the code block to resolve any questions, and ask you're still confused.
