Comment (by pixelverbieger):

 Having read all your posts and the discussion on slack, I can say:
 @LittleBigThing got it and the better title for the ticket probably would
 be

 "graphically visualize if comments are different from the general setting
 in the blog"

 @karmatosed

 In my opinion, the benefit for the user is:

 If someone ''is'' wanting comments on his site and unintentionally closed
 them on a particular post/page, it would be good for him to see the
 mistake and thus be able to correct it.

 On the other hand, if someone does ''not'' want pages/posts to be
 commented (and makes this as a general seeting) but for some reason one
 page or post is published with comments open, it also would be good to see
 this mistake to be able to correct it.

 Not always is the one big default switch suitable for ''all'' posts and
 pages in a website and then it is useful to see at a glance how the
 setting are in detail.

 And if someone is not at all interested in comments and related stuff like
 status and number of comments, he can switch off the column.
