For me it's mostly "I'm likely to need to cold-revisit this 6-18 months later: leave myself a trail of breadcrumbs to search for".

Even the nearly 29% "not code" of the particular tool isn't purely commentary: at least a third of that was "readability" null-lines. I lumped them together because I was more interested in "how much of this is actual code" vice "how much of this is 'helper' content" (searchable-comments or 'readability' blank-lines).
