Gas stoves aren't really that fast - even standard electric is faster!

@matrix @matrix but they can't do constant heat

@sjw ?

@sjw You mean like they duty cycle instead of lower output?

@matrix @matrix that's exactly what electrical stoves do.
It makes some forms of cooking (like getting a reliable sear without burning) nearly impossible.

@sjw I think that's more related to the thermal inertia instead of the cycling but I guess so

@matrix @matrix yes and also no.
It's way harder to make fine adjustments to heat even if you have good pans
