Comment (by mattkeys):

 Just to add to this discussion, I found this ticket when searching for
 solutions to why a 404'ing feed is being added to the head on a site I
 manage.

 The comments feed link tag seems to be added to the head so long as
 comments are open on the post type, which they are. However because I have
 has_archive set to false, the feed 404's, creating SEO/Crawl issues. After
 reading the docs on 'register_post_type' I found the 'feeds' param under
 rewrites and set it to true, expecting it to fix the problem, but it did
 not, and I eventually found my way here.
