A: The fact that people tend to abuse the privilege of article comments, often by leaving spam or gibberish in them.

B: Coming from an admin's perspective (because I am an admin on a couple of wikis), it can be quite a nuisance to see continuous comment spam in Special:RecentChanges, sometimes to the point where I get stressed out, annoyed, and a headache.

You don't have to have Article Comments. They are optional on the wiki-level.
