You may like more food that is cooked on an open flame, if you like frying or if you like burned crusts, but precision is not the reason. I eat only food that I cook myself from raw ingredients and I have switched years ago from cooking on an open flame to cooking with a microwave oven. Regarding precision, a microwave oven does not have competition. Once I have established a sequence of powers and durations for each power that is appropriate for a certain recipe, the food will always be cooked identically, while freeing me to do other activities instead of handling the food. I still have a gas stove with oven, but I have not opened it again for about 7 years.
