I am afraid that there is nothing to be wikified... I opened it (Mint 19.3/64b) in qpdfview and evince, print out by pdfinfo and mutool and in all cases there is "a b c" or "a, b, c" (, = single left quote) as was written. (My acroread is just broken and in xpdf and mupdf I guess there is no service to display it.)
What is the reason that keyword attribute does not accept commas whereas others (title, author...) do?
# keyword={{a, b, c}},
As far as I know, key words (in papers, books etc.) are used only as a comma separated list of terms without further structuring so I cannot imagine who and why would need braces in normal cases.
Normally when something is applied (like here removing commas) there is a reason (here we're talking of very old features so i would not be surprised id some older acrobat liked it more when displaying them and often these older feature are made such that acrobat was served). And pdf data structures are not something typeset, which for means means: 'word' is just that 'word'.
