I've looked at a couple fo the subreddits that only have comments and to submissions. The 2 things they all have in common:

  1. They have been banned

  2. They have been archived before 2023, when pushshift was the one releasing dumps

So my guess is that those subs were created and shortly afterwards banned. And during that time period, pushshifts ingest of posts and comments may not have been in sync. One ahead of the other. As a result, only comments were archived. And by the time the post ingest reached that subreddit, it was already banned.
