I love my gas stove, although I've been interested in a precision induction stove. As a statistician, I'd be really interested in digging into this statistic:
> A December 2022 study in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health found that indoor gas stove usage is associated with an increased risk of current asthma among children. The study found that almost 13% of current childhood asthma in the US is attributable to gas stove use.

I read the article (4 pages) and it doesn't seem obviously flawed, but the data is very limited and only for 2019. There also isn't really enough information to reproduce the analysis. I hope the CPSC would base their considerations on a larger, more in-depth study (perhaps over time?)
