Should you edit an accepted answer to add your own (completely different) solution to the problem?

While browsing for information on the CSS grid layout, I came across the answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/45563006/5798798 and the first line made it stand out to me:

I've never edited an accepted answer, but felt compelled to do so in this case.

After reading the answer, it became clear that a user has added their own opinion to the original answer and even added a completely different solution to it (while keeping the original - below theirs).

While I can understand that the user may have wanted others to know the accepted answer's solution was not the best practise, should this not have been better done in a comment in supplement with a subsequent answer?
