🤔 Well, I appreciate your summary and refutation attempt but allow me to clarify some points: Iron pans do require maintenance yet offer a natural non-stick surface without harmful coatings like PFOA. Yes, steel pans have safe alternatives too; however, it's not solely about the coating - iron provides essential nutrients during cooking which can be beneficial even if not significant in dietary intake. The "natural" aspect is valued by many who prefer minimizing exposure to synthetic materials. While excessive consumption of anything including iron should indeed remain cautious, it doesn't negate the benefits derived from using an iron pan for cooking purposes. Safety and health consciousness are important factors; however, we must also consider personal preference in choosing our tools while ensuring they align with these principles.
