 turned-off-on-pages-by-default/.

 Here's a snippet you can add to you child theme's `functions.php` file or
 turn into a plugin:
 {{{
 function wp33516_open_comments_for_pages( $status, $post_type,
 $comment_type ) {
         if ( 'page' === $post_type ) {
                 $status = 'open';
         }

         return $status;
 }
 add_filter( 'get_default_comment_status',
 'wp33516_open_comments_for_pages', 10, 3 );
 }}}
