I was fine with it there, it was useful to me. I quizzed some classmates after the exam and it seemed like very few noticed it.

But the grade is literally the least informative part. Odds are it was thrown together a few hours before you got the tests back in order to get the distribution the uni wants, whereas the grader probably took time to make these comments.
As a TA this makes me really mad.
