In this case both would work but I mean to add a new line not replacing, because we don't want to remove something.
The line you are removing/replacing in your example is a comment line so the system will be not effected but you will lost some information for human readers.

So I will edit my post to make it more clear.
However I think this modification will effect mainly command line tools, but do it anyway because it doesn't hurt and is worth a try.
