What is the point of blank line inside of a comment? I believe it makes more sense to count these as blanks.

Yep, I agree with you, but I was just looking at that from a parent-child perspective. Since a blank line is inside a comment block, it is indeed a comment. Furthermore there are metrics, like the LOCbl, that count the number of blank lines in a file, but they exclude the blank lines inside a comment block because they are considered to be a comment line. That's why I'm asking for a clarification :)

Thank you for your issue! I can definitely see the of why one could see it as comments in this case. I haven't really given much thought on whether it should be one or the other.

Thanks to you for accepting my issue!
In order to not break the current implementation, perhaps we could add a cli option, something like: --blank-as-comment-block

I would be hesitant about making an option, I want to keep the amount of bespoke behaviour flags to a minimum. I would prefer to change the implementation if I was going to make a change.

I really think that current implementation makes more sense. When counting the number of comment lines, I will possibly like to know how much of the comments are meaningful.
