Adding an embedded JS comments widget does/would add some additional maintenance burden (because user-generated content).
Free-form, user-generated content on PyPI would become a pathway for harassment and abuse. Introducing user-generated content on PyPI would necessarily put an emotional burden on package maintainers in addition to the maintenance burden (unless PyPI moderators are going to screen content before maintainers and users see it—given the dearth of resources for PyPI as it is, this strikes me as exceedingly unlikely). —Daniel
