Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"53414" 53414]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="53414"
 Accessibility: List Tables: Hide the Comments column icon and `title`
 attribute from screen readers.

 The element already has non-visual text, making the icon and the `title`
 attribute redundant for assistive technologies.

 Follow-up to [22439], [27548], [31513], [32991], [50804].

 Props sabernhardt, ryokuhi, afercia, karlgroves, SergeyBiryukov.
 Fixes #55555. See #24766.
