    That manual entry is different from the danger case; it’s just telling you that the stove won’t do anything, which is what ones I’ve actually encountered do: they have a sensor which detects a non-ferromagnetic material, and keeps the stove from activating.

    Sure stuff can fail. But designed right, it means that the stove breaks, not that it puts people in danger.

    This is a bunch of scaremongering.

      Then you should also remove my post about it being possible to blow out a wall with a gas stove. It might also scare people. It’s here, I kindly request that you review it:

      Moderation practises should be consistent, in my opinion.

        The key difference is this: gas explosions happen fairly regularly, and require training to prevent even some of them. Some sort of stove-melts disaster is something that doesn’t seem to actually happen that I can tell.
