I commented in this case because of what the website is 'providing'. It's a 30,000 word collection of essays, of READING material. It greatly bothers me that such effort is put into the content but such lip service has been paid to the presentation. To divorce the content and the presentation is simply not feasible and pretty insulting to the good work of designers/typesetters and indeed readers. I suspect the frequency of this sort of comment is due to the frequency of bad design. Perhaps in other cases this sort of comment isn't relevant, I can accept that argument. I argue that here it is relevant because the entire premise of the material is that it's for reading and the presentation makes that unviable. Do we also stop positive comments like this[0] one? Perhaps what I should have done is make a more detailed post outlining the issues with the content and perhaps linked to well accepted design practices that help improve the reading experience. But to suggest 'these types of comments' are without relevance (*and deserving of flagging) is to deny conversation about an important part of the submission content.
