incorrect comment blocks in html script blocks

[rishavs]

if I have a html string like this;

let str = /*html*/`
<div> This is a div </div>
<script> console.log("This is script")</script>
`

I want to use the comment shortcuts in vs code to comment out the js within the script tags.
I would expect the comment command to add // to the line.
Instead it adds <!-- --> to the line.
