It works as a convenience feature. However, I don't think we
should publicize it much, as a comment is first and foremost,
dead data.
To me comments are mainly things that don't get exported. I don't
know what you mean by "dead", but comments are certainly "data",
and data is not dead. Their utility and data density is reduced if
they can't contain links (or I can't see that the link is there,
which is sort-of the same thing).
When writing a document it is useful to leave informal notes to
myself that say "see X" where X is an external file, or a section
(or some code) elsewhere in this document, etc.
This can be done with "#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE :exports none", or
"**SECTION :noexport:", but both of those are awful hacks when a
single line or a few words are all that is needed.
-k.
