Thank you for reporting the bug. I can not reproduce the bug under either version 25.8 or 25.2 below as the "comments" option displays under both LibreOffice Writer and LibreOffice Writer/Web

I also see the option in both panes. Perhaps you need to reset your user profile. You can first check by going to Help - Restart in safe mode and then clicking Continue in safe mode.
