Is the menu > View > Comments disabled?

No, enabled. The comment indicator is not visible in edit & presentation mode if disabled.

However is makes perfectly sense to have View -> comments ON. You want the comment indicator  to be 'visible' in Edit Mode, but not while running the Presentation (Presentation mode)

There where changes made to the rendering of the comment indicator, a while back. With quite a number of bugs as result. So this might have slipped through.

And how are comments made visible in the slide show?

This was not possible in the past. Those comments are in my perception directed to the author, not the public. FWIW: you can't access comment itself either  only the comment indicator is show in presentation mode

If this is a design choice bibisect will tell. It's a bug, not a feature from my perspective
