-        # how ComfyUI works, lists of strings can be plugged into
-        # string inputs as if they were plain strings. What happens
-        # then is that the system takes the length of the longest
-        # list passed in, padding the other ones to the same length,
-        # and calling the node's function for each entry. Finally,
-        # these entries are then again returned as a list with the
-        # longest length. This is not what we want for a simple
-        # formatter.
-        #
-        # Instead, we set the input to be a list, which makes it so
-        # process is only called once with all lists, which we can
-        # handle as we see fit. We can also return whatever we want.
-        # The caveat is that we need to handle the lists somehow,
