from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import requests

def find_parent_id(comment_id, user):
    try:
        i = 0
        while True:
            data = requests.get(
                f"https://scratch.mit.edu/site-api/comments/user/{user}/?page=" + str(i)).text
            soup = BeautifulSoup(data, features="html.parser")
            comment = soup.find(id="comments-" + str(comment_id))
            if comment != None:
                return comment.parent.parent.parent.find(class_="comment")["data-comment-id"]
                break
            i += 1
    except AttributeError:
        return comment_id

I know about that and TimMcCool likely also does. I am just suggesting it be implemented.
