> I wasn't able to find the ``Multics Condensed Guide'' on multicians.org

multicians.org  points to
http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/honeywell/multics/swenson/6906.multics-condensed-guide.pdf

It also has
https://www.multicians.org/mspm/bx-9-06.681115.qed-editor.pdf

Amusingly, the "condensed guide" is many pages longer than the
MSPM (Multics system programmer's manual--the gospel)
Neither tells about extra address fields or semicolons

> In ex(1) the " comment command reappeared.

And in sed the y command reappeared.
