Whatever theme/packages I use in Emacs have been highlighting NOTE, TODO, FIXME in comments for at least the last 10 years, so that's what I use.

My code contains no NOTEs,TODOs,FIXMEs or Comments, for as Programmer, I have transcended space and time to the final abstraction, and no longer write any code, only long complicated manual procedures, which I then outsource to third parties, who in true programming fashion use AI.

NOTE is a good word for it too. Never saw it in the wild myself, but I'll adopt that (easier than explaining what NIT is)

You don't need to be accused of being a nit-picker all that many times to figure out what a nit is.

So the label is kind of useful: for flushing out the people who need it explained -- now you know sho's sloppy enough to be worth being wary about.
