Comment (by Justin_K):

 That doesn't actually replicate the above - it just switches off the
 ability to submit new comments. The previous code hides comments entirely
 (both rendering comments, and rendering the submission form - that
 suggestion only does the latter).

 The reason I reported this as a bug is because the `comments_template`
 filter no longer functions properly, and so far there does not seem to be
 a proper replacement. As the plugin is not under active development, & has
 remained untouched & functional for over a decade, this really isn't a
 request for "help developing my plugin." Typically when platforms make
 breaking changes, it is mentioned in the documentation. But neither the
 documentation for the `comments_template` filter, nor the WP 6.1 update
 notification, provided notes regarding this breaking change.

 Once an actual replacement is identified, it should probably go in the
 documentation for that filter. But thus far, I still see no suitable
 replacement for the now-broken `comments_template` filter.
