COMMENT has to be at the start of the headline text, which starts after
any TODO keyword and priority character (see `org-heading-components').
So the COMMENT keyword in the second headline is not valid.

The manual specifies:

  Also entire subtrees starting with the keyword ‘COMMENT’ will never be
  exported

We could be more explicit. In any case, COMMENT cannot be put anywhere.
