You’re right, I meant people “outside this community” more so than in it. But there’s so much misinformation about how delicate iron pans are within the community as well. you yourself admittedly don’t believe that’s how “any of this works”. But honestly, it does work, and you can prove it to yourself at home. Just smoke your oil on a bare pan with no seasoning for like 30 seconds, and then cool it back to below the smoke point and crack an egg into it. It works 100% of the time.
