If a user has rights to comment on or read comments on a question item, those controls are displaying even within the quiz-taking context. It makes sense that someone would want to comment on an item, but while they're taking a quiz they should not have access to the comments or the ability to comment.

Can the quiz_view or quiz_prepare hooks remove these item controls? Maybe the quiz theme block?

Title: Don't show comments on question item nodes within quiz taking context » Don't show comments and taxonomy link on question item nodes within quiz taking context

The same applies for taxonomy as well.

This was actually a requested feature, and was done intentionally. Apparently, some use cases for Quiz actually entail commenting on questions and then making those comments accessible.

Commenting on questions while taking a quiz? I wonder if those use cases would be better served by the new "item collection" type. I mean, maybe they wanted a way to comment on a collection of items and at the time the Quiz type was the only way to do it.

Do you have the original request? Or a way to contact the requesters?

If commenting during quiz taking is necessary to maintain, then I would propose that it be a property set on a quiz and that it be disabled by default.
