 }}}
 Currently, the `wp_set_comment_cookies()` function uses the
 `comment_cookie_lifetime` filter only when setting cookies, but not when
 removing them.

 This leads to a minor inconsistency: developers filtering
 `comment_cookie_lifetime` may expect the same value to apply in both
 cases, particularly when setting a past timestamp to delete cookies.

 ### Proposed Enhancement

 This patch ensures consistency by applying the same
 `comment_cookie_lifetime` filter when calculating the `$past` value for
 cookie removal:

 `php`
 $past = time() - apply_filters( 'comment_cookie_lifetime', YEAR_IN_SECONDS
 );
