 If you look at how it's actually used in the UI, the JS fills the
 `<strong>` tags in with the commenter's name.
 Javascript doesn't understand `%s` as a placeholder, so HTML tags are used
 instead. If we want to remove the bolding of the  username here we'd need
 to replace it with something such as `<span></span>` and update whatever
 JS uses it to search for the `span` tag rather than `strong`.
