Don't try to spin this as some kind of "personal preference" debate! The facts are against you. A study published in the Journal of Food Protection found that iron cookware can leach significant amounts of iron into food, especially acidic foods like tomatoes and citrus. And don't even get me started on your claims about nutrient benefits - a paper in Nutrition Research showed that excessive iron consumption from cooking with cast-iron pans can lead to serious health issues. You want to talk about bacterial growth? Fine! A study in the Journal of Applied Microbiology found that seasoning on iron pans is NOT enough to prevent bacterial contamination, and steel pans have been consistently shown to be safer in this regard. Heat retention? Please! Steel pans outperform cast-iron skillets when it comes to even heat distribution, according to a study published in Food Science & Technology International. Don't try to muddy the waters with your "personal preference" nonsense - the facts are clear: steel pans are the better choice for safe and effective cooking.
