 This looks like a WordPress issue. If you are logged in, and in any
 comment, you click reply, the textarea gets the focus handle. This is
 fine.

 But when you are logged out, and click reply, it again goes to the
 textarea. I think this should go to Name field. In desktop, this might not
 be a big issue but in mobile, this is a huge one. You get to the focus
 where you are prompted with keyboard. Once you fill in the comment and
 click Done, and Submit (which is usual behaviour), you get to the error
 page. You will have to come back, scroll to the comment and fill in the
 name and email again. Since the focus handle (cursor) goes to the Comment
 field, the Name and Email hides up in the browser view of the mobile and
 users will not know you have to scroll up and add those fields before you
 can submit without errors.
