Centrist take: If you can’t get a decent sear on a gas stove you need to learn how to cook.

      Well then you’re not just boiling it, are you? It’s like throwing a bunch of spices and fresh vegetables in cup noodles; at that point, you may as well just make it properly.

          Since we’re talking about how boiling steak is a bad idea, we are indeed talking about just boiling it. Does that steak in the picture look like it got a sear in a pan? If course not, so I’m not sure how “it can be fine if you also sear it” is relevant.

          I didn’t realise that I’d have to defend “boiling is a bad way to cook steak”, frankly. It’s not a hot take.
