The delete key also deletes the comment on the cell and I don’t want to

When I select a cell with a comment and press the Delete key, the comment is also deleted, which I don’t want.
I know I can delete the contents of a cell by right-clicking, clicking “Clear Contents” and then clicking a box that allows me to deselect “Comment,” but this is impractical, and I’d like to achieve the same effect by simply pressing the Delete key.
How can I achieve this?
