It’s bold because calibre stores it as HTML But that is AFTER you edited the Comments field with the GUI metadata editor. If it was imported as plain text and you left the Comments field untouched in the GUI it is kept as plain text internally in calibre database. The HTML code you see in the Comments metadata editor is not an accurate representation of the real information stored in the database. That can be plain text!
