The topic of gas stoves ignited a heated debate last year when a Biden appointee suggested they could be banned because they posed a risk to human health.

But a ban isn’t in the works — and this week the administration will finalize a scaled-back plan to make new stoves less energy-intensive.

      You’re conflating two things:

      1. Most stoves are installed at home, and designed for ordinary at-home use
      2. A standard for the efficiency of new stoves manufactured 2028 and later

      That’s just sealioning.
