This feed measured 200 comments with 200 distinct ids over 8 pages, so unlike the subreddit and popular feeds a short result here really does mean the account ran out of comments. These rows are a profile shape, not a comment-tree shape: they carry the body, score and permalink but no parent, no depth and no replies, because a profile feed spans posts and has no tree to be at a depth in. `next_cursor` is base64('t1_' + the last comment's id)."  }}
