That was half-baked.

An hypothetical C/C++ hacker is unlikely to try C-c C-c for
commenting-out a region on an interactive mode because he will first
learn that that binding is using for sending the code to the subprocess
and, furthermore, commenting-out regions is not something that one would
do as one of his first operations when one starts using those modes.
