Why are kbd tags disabled in comments?

Question

I just realized that <kbd></kbd> tags don't work in comments (KeyName). Is there a specific reason for that?

I don't think any HTML is allowed in comments. <br> See, the <br> doesn't do anything. — Tim, Dec 7 '14 at 10:01
Comments use mini-Markdown formatting: [link](http://example.com) _italic_ **bold** `code`. The post author will always be notified of your comment. To also notify a previous commenter, mention their user name: @peter or @PeterSmith will both work. Learn more... — Tim, Dec 7 '14 at 13:29

Comments support fewer features because they are definitely second class citizens in the Stack Exchange world.
