What's the difference between
# and #|/bin/true  (or #anyrandomcharacters)?

Isn't any line beginning with # considered a comment?

(I realize that #|/bin/true is probably an indication that they were
trying to do something they didn't need to, and # would be more
straightforward.  I just don't see why anything following the # would
cause a crash).
