It depends, if it needed a comment in the first place it likely was at a different (likely lower) level of abstraction than the rest of the code in that method.

Yes, but that doesn't mean it doesn't benefit from being inline. I love being able to skim over the paragraph-comments to get the big picture and then dip into the details without having to jump to another file / part of the file and lose my context.
