Subject: [PATCH] fix(comments): remove empty state hint from CommentThread
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The "Noch keine Kommentare" hint with icon is unnecessary — users
already clicked "Kommentieren" to open the thread, so showing them
an empty state just adds noise. Jump straight to the compose box.
