Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 If the theme does not use `comment_form()`, then a core option would not
 work for it either.

 If it does, then a plugin should work.

 There are other, more effective ways to fight spam, like the Akismet
 plugin.

 Adding a new option here would go against the

 philosophy of WordPress, so this seems like plugin territory to me. That
 said, I'm keeping the ticket open for now, let's wait for more opinions.
