Enabling Comment Pagination on Question and Answer Nodes

My use case requires that both question and answer node comments are paginated using core pagination.

When the default display count of comments (e.g., 10) is exceeded for either a question or answer node, no pager is rendered on the comments. For example, a question gets 11 comments, but only 10 are shown. I would like to show a pager or the more comments link used in this module: https://drupal.org/project/morecomments

I've tried changing all pager IDs on the pages to resolve any conflicts, but that hasn't done the trick to show pagers.

Is this by design that pagers are not shown?

If so, that's fine and I understand, but can you please advise on how to render pagers for the comments on questions and answers?

Thanks!
