Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 Personally, 410 is exactly what I'd want it to be on my own site:
 Something that stops the feed reader at the gate on comments feeds for old
 posts, where the comments are closed.

 It's annoying to have feed readers who are knocking your site's individual
 posts and pages' feeds when comments are closed. It's just a waste of
 bandwidth... :-)
