I tried to make sense to them in
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=50539

I tested all the browsers at hand.

Lynx failed the test.

Lynx treats comments within textareas as comments and not text.

That's wrong. Probably according to
https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/form-elements.html#the-textarea-element
too.
