-  /* Workaround to make it possible to pass a path at runtime to USD.
-   *
-   * USD requires some JSON files, and it uses a static constructor to determine the possible
-   * file-system paths to find those files. This made it impossible for Blender to pass a path to
-   * the USD library at runtime, as the constructor would run before Blender's main() function.
-   * We have patched USD (see usd.diff) to avoid that particular static constructor, and have an
-   * initialization function instead.
-   *
-   * This function is implemented in the USD source code, `pxr/base/lib/plug/initConfig.cpp`. */
