Pointing out that there are but 31 people in the study could be considered helpful, but a basic familiarity with qualitative studies of anything that isn't a drug informs us that small sample sizes are pretty standard.
Complaining about a small sample size screams of ignorance; there's nothing wrong with shameless extroversion, thespianism, or small sample sizes. If you want to point it out and be meaningful, comment on the sample size in relation to the effect size in a way that includes statistical power. Say something. Don't just echo things you've heard other people say.
