It should be 'I still have a more intelligent comment on it than you,' while 'I still have more intelligent comment on it' sounds like a caveman.

It might make sense if comment was the predicate but as a singular noun its awkward without an article.

There's awkward and then there's grammatically awkward.

Speaking of which, why are we arguing about grammar and not who's getting cucked by the biggest black pill?
