I very much agree. I've been using Gemini 2.5 pro for coding and I've always given it a simple instruction. Never write comments. It will stop writing them for a time but it's nowhere near the 1M context window.

Now maybe this is more a lack of instruction following than context length but the fact that it works at first and then starts going downhill quickly makes me wary about how much it will pay attention to other details further back in the context.
