Hi, @Avi-ADAM 😄.

If we're talking about comments on legislation drafts, this actually works as intended, although I agree that it's confusing.

The idea is that, once a draft version is published and people add comments to it, you no longer edit it (maybe we should add a validation rule for this 🤔) but create a new draft version instead.

I don't think it's possible to change the current behavior at least until we replace the library we use to add annotations (which is no longer maintained).
