Why do we ask if a person is "comfortable", rather than "comforted"?
This doesn't really address the question, but. Consider that the opposite of comfortable is uncomfortable. We would not say discomfortable, but we do say discomforted.
Very different things, those; the former physical, the latter emotional, as generally used.
