My new understanding
Okay, it seems clear now that my understanding of the role played by COMT inhibitors was faulty.
My new understanding is as follows:
The main purpose of COMT inhibitors (in PD treatment) is to (try to) stop the COMT enzyme from breaking down levodopa (mainly outside of the brain).
