I think it's a feature. Otherwise, expiring score entries and the interactive scoring commands wouldn't work (or would be very, very hard to implement in a satisfactory manner). > If latter, can it be turned off? Thanks. You can put the stuff that requires extensive comments (for example, tricky regexps) into a separate file, put `(read-only t)' into it, and include this file from the regular score file using `(file "blah")'. But as a result, Gnus sometimes selects the wrong default score file for the interactive scoring files (i.e., one of the read-only files). You can correct that with (setq gnus-home-score-file 'gnus-score-file-name) in your ~/.gnus file.
