Also, natural gas apparently causes not-insignificant levels of indoor pollution:
"Updated May 5, 2020: A Rocky Mountain Institute report, published today in collaboration with Physicians for Social Responsibility and others, underscores the UCLA modeling that cooking on gas can spike emissions of nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide to levels that would violate outdoor pollutant standards. The RMI report synthesizes two decades of health research, highlights key findings, and provides recommendations." (Natural Resources Defense Council)
If I find myself needing to micromanage cooking temperatures, I'll go with an induction cooktop.
