Hi all - upon further inspection that is by design. The thinking being that home pages typically do not have comments. Comments are not lost, if that page is not longer set to the home page the comments will reappear. For now, there will never be comments on the home page.
Would love your feedback here! What is your desired behavior? Is there a desire for comments on the home page of a site?

Hi Allyssa,
I think you are missing the point.

The comment field appears and there is no way to remove it.
If you use a Home layout page as a Home page it works fine (there is no comment field).
