The irony here is pretty delicious. The comment actually is in English as I don't speak French. raison d'être is a writing device. I have only ever seen it in English articles (since I can't read French). It is just one of those phrases that has transcended its origins. And while I would balk at a dev writing an entire comment in French, I have no problem with common recognizable phrases like this.
