    # cat tmp.nft
    table inet x {
        # comments are allowed here
        chain y {
            # comments are allowed here
            icmpv6 type {
                1,                  # comments are allowed here
                2,
            } accept

            icmpv6 type {
                1,
                # comments AREN'T allowed here
                2,
            } accept
        }
    }
    list ruleset

    root at not-omega:~# nft --file tmp.nft
    tmp.nft:12:43-43: Error: syntax error, unexpected newline, expecting comma
or '}'
                # comments AREN'T allowed here
                                              ^
    tmp.nft:13:14-14: Error: syntax error, unexpected comma
                2,
                 ^
    tmp.nft:14:11-16: Error: syntax error, unexpected accept, expecting newline
or semicolon
            } accept
              ^^^^^^

PS: it also doesn't allow blank lines, e.g.

    add table x
    add chain x y
    add rule x y ip saddr {
        1,

        2,
    } accept
