> as it was at the time of development

Also as it was interpreted at the time of development - the two should be the same of course but we don't live in a perfect world. If a comment explains exactly what the code is trying to do and why, and the "what" matches the code but doesn't match the client expectations then as well as fixing the code you know you might need to update documentation elsewhere too to make it cleare.
