[theme-reviewers] Comments are closed on pages

[Justin Tadlock]

Actually, I would argue that this message should be displayed if pings 
are open:

"Comments are closed but trackbacks and pingbacks are open."

I would never say a theme couldn't have that.  Even my themes show a 
message similar to that.  And, this was a decision made by my theme 
users, not me.

Personally, I don't even check for a "comments are closed" message at 
all in my reviews.  I consider that a theme developer's choice, even if 
I don't like the message sitting there on pages.
