As a personal use only script, it's not that dissimilar to using search to only search in specific namespaces. It's just another form of client-side information sorting. If used properly, beyond maybe some hurt feelings, it doesn't cause any harm to the person whose comments are being hidden. Or what, de-friending someone on facebook is not kosher? I should just leave them on my friend's list forever and be forced to see their status updates?

Edit: That being said, I do not advocate actively encouraging others to do this, as that can harm someone's image.
