Why is IE11 Ignoring Conditional Comment

I'm running IE11 on windows 8.1. I have the following header in a page:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
        <!--[if IE]><meta http-equiv='X-UA-Compatible' content='IE=edge'><![endif]-->

Am i loosing my mind or does IE11 now ignore these conditional comments? The reason i am inclosing this in the comments so to help with html validation. If i remove the comment it works as expected.

MS has dropped conditional comments as of IE10. http://www.sitepoint.com/microsoft-drop-ie10-conditional-comments/.
