There are "silent" or "understood" words in English often. One of the most common is "You."
Let me show you:
Run upstairs. Who? Right, you.
Here is another example of pronouns and ideas missing in correct speech.
"Just like that?" This is a complete sentence if it is spoken. The "It was" is understood.... Just like that.

The "on" can be omitted.

Informally as an adverb, the weekdays. Whereas if you used "on", it'd make "comments" ambiguous --- whether the comments are on the topic, "Wednesday", or the "on" is with "Wed", not "comments".

In this case, no "on" is necessary. The sentence is fine as is.
