When I say in their scripts - I mean within the SQL Block itself. Of course there should be comments in the program.

I dunno about _bad_ practice, but I tend to beat developers around the head and shoulders who DON'T put comments in there scripts. It makes it easier to follow what they think ther are doing and for others to later modify the script to change what it is doing.
