## Description

This simple plugin fixes an issue people on mobile devices are experiencing when
they are scrolling over the “Reply” button on the comment form, triggering the reply
action unintentionally.

This issue was introduced in WordPress 5.1 and it happens because the `touchstart`
event is not set to `passive`.
