While this isn't harmful, to me this looks like pointless patch churn
for zero gain and it's just ugly.

In general I find it useful to mark fall through cases. And it's just a
comment with two words, so they cannot hurt your eyes that much.

I don't see them being harmful in the code, but I don't see them of much use either. If it happened as part of natural code development, fine. My objection is to people running around doing this systematically causing patch churn for little to zero gain.
