I have cookware that I currently actively use that are incompatible with induction ranges. Good luck using 100% ceramic cookware or anything without a flat bottom. I highly considered getting an induction range when I moved into my current home, but I opted for gas instead when I realised it was not going to work for my home cooking.

Not the restaurants I go to.
Acceptable to some, does not mean acceptable to all.

Following your logic in the previous paragraph, it ought not to matter. Jurisdictions in the US and Europe have already concluded that the risks of allowing gas stoves is greater than the benefit. You ignored the climate change point, and instead focussed on the technical fix of trying to get everyone to use an extractor fan. The City of Vancouver concluded there was a benefit in stopping stoves in new homes until the present Council mysteriously changed their minds after meetings with Fortis.

It's clearly not a settled debate like banning CFCs or asbestos was, then hm? I ignored the climate change point because you ignored my point about banning cars, and barbeques, and heat pumps, refrigerators, and air conditioners. Probably should throw in banning airplanes, meat, in fact all industrial agriculture, the entire petrochemical industry really, and steel, and concrete, and...
Until those are banned, which are all far worse for the environment, I'm okay with a drop in the bucket. Enforce range hoods.
