> replacing that with static analysis tools to remove such comments

I dislike excessive usage of these kind of tools because not infrequently you end up making your code worse just to satisfy some dumb tool.

The real solution is just accepting that not all code needs to be like you would have written it yourself, and asking yourself "does this comment address anything that's objectively wrong with the code?" A lot of times the answer to that will be "no".
