Description
The rules.py file has a longDesc field which could store comments but is currently empty. We could put unparseable lines (mostly comments) from the ratelibrary.txt files in here when we import, so they don't get lost.

Research direction
Read rules.py to understand the longDesc field, then trace the import path for ratelibrary.txt files. Check how unparseable lines are currently handled and preserve the relevant comments in longDesc during import. Done means those comments are no longer lost and existing import behavior remains intact.
