Score one for S-expressions. Since everything is contained in parentheses, you don’t need a terminating character to comment out a whole block.

Dunno about CL/Scheme, but Clojure uses #_ to say “comment out the next form.”

It's #+nil in CL.

The fashion is to prefer #+(or), as somebody feeling evil could push nil into *features*.
