Pre-migration comments become undeletable once a question is Comment on migrated answer not linked to my newly created account

I was one of the answerers to a question later migrated: Why do so many books indent all paragraphs except the first one in each chapter? . 

My answer had received a comment while still in its original location, and I responded to that comment. Later he deleted his comment and added another, leaving mine without context. I was going to delete it, but with the page in its new location, it doesn't seem possible. The ⊗ symbol for deletion, which normally appears when you hover over one of your comments, is not showing up.

Thus I guess my non-existence at that point in time led to the comment's undeletablity by the author.

Havingaccount (as my comment remain is not a problem, butanswer was) even after creating an account on the issue seemed worth asking aboutsite.
