OT: I've always wondered, why aren't pots (edit: all pots, not just water kettles) insulated? And to take it step further, why aren't the stove burner and its interface with the pot also insulated?
To test the energy loss yourself: Put a pot on the stove, turn on the stove, and hold your hand over the pot, next to the pot, and also touching the side of the pot. (DO NOT DO THIS. It's dangerous. Do it as a thought experiment instead.)
