It only has it's uses if you are running any services through it. If you
are going to # out all the services in /etc/inetd.conf, why not just
shut inetd down alltogether? Seems logical to me.

Hmm, I don't understand this discussion about disabling inetd

and insert a hashmark # in front of every line for a service you don't

Yikes! I guess, you didn't remove inetd that way, right? But how then?
As root:
/etc/init.d/inetd stop
rm /etc/rc?.d/S??inetd
It will not be started again, but the K??inetd links will still be in
place so the next upgrade won't override your decisions.
