That's why this was the last thing I said in that text wall.

Even then it would still be nowhere near as practical as just switching to electric appliances.

As much as I love my gas stove and my water heater that needs no electricity, I do acknowledge that they need to go at some point. I'm personally waiting for heat pump appliances to get cheaper or for my finances to get better so I can afford them. Heat pump water heaters and driers are far more efficient than their resistive electric counterparts. Decent induction stoves are also too spendy for me right now.

There is some nuance here. The efficiency of electric depends partially on how it's produced, and if (emphasis on IF) your local power station burns fossil fuels, and what you're after is heat, then burning the gas inside your house is (generally) far more efficient than burning it in a power station to generate electricity that you then turn back into heat inside your house. There are exceptions, but

Of course the best thing to do is to turn renewable (or long-lasting) forms of energy into electricity. The sun ain't gonna stop shining, the wind ain't gonna stop blowing, magma ain't about to get cold, and those spicy rocks are gonna stay spicy. There's no reason for us to be turning carbon into heat into electricity and back into heat in current year.
