Here are the main reasons why commented code is a code smell :

    
It always raises more questions than it gives answers
    
Everybody will forget very quickly how relevant the commented code is
    
This is distraction when going down the code as it stops the flow of eyes
    
It is a bad SCM engine : Subversion, CVS and Git are really more trustworthy !
    
The simple fact of understanding why code was commented out in the first place can take a lot of time

The goal of this rule is to detect commented out code only on HTML code (but not on Javascript, Java and any other language).
