💻 Code

class B {
    constructor(...args: any[]) {}
}

class A extends B {
    constructor(...args: any[]) {
        /** this comment is not preserved */
        super(...args)
    }
}

class C extends B {
    constructor(...args: any[]) {
        /** this comment is preserved */
        
        super(...args)
    }
}

🙁 Actual behavior

Comment on the super call was not preserved in the ES5 output

🙂 Expected behavior

Comment on the super call to be preserved
