I sanitized all of my comments before I deleted them. They’re welcome to bring them back. it’s all just a protest message anyway. But for those who didn’t, this is really shitty.
The script I use edits comments (“e” is what I have it set to), then deletes them. Reddit restored my comments as they were before the edit to “e”. If that’s what you mean by “sanitizing”, that part is apparently not foolproof. Hopefully deleting the entire account doesn’t get rolled back.
they don’t retain comment edit history. they literally don’t possess this capability-- it’s a GDPR requirement.
it’s possible that some of your comments were missed when you tried to sanitize them. i ran into this issue myself and had to re-run the sanitization script a few times to get all of my comments.

Unedited messages were restored to my profile. You might want to check yours.
no profile to check-- i also deleted my account. but, like I said: I sanitized all of my comments first.

Unless you sent them a gdpr request they have all your edit history saved
They are going into their database and restoring the original comments. No just un-deleting them. This is exactly why I left my account active.
