Exactly. Homes built now should be in their prime in the mid 2040s. At that point, we really, really, really don't want to need gas infrastructure for our homes. (If we get to that point, and a significant percentage of people are still heating their homes with gas, then how are we not screwed?) We need to be building zero emissions homes. (Or as close to it as we can.) The heating technology already exists to replace most single family home gas heating. That begs the question: Why invest in gas infrastructure just for a gas stove? That, frankly, seems shortsighted. This isn't just about individual choices, or even individual homes. This is about transitioning away from government supported infrastructure that brings gas to homes, which is a society-wide issues. 20 years from now, gas pipes to homes should be seen as unnecessary.
