A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Ceramics can take plenty of heat, the non-stick isn't stellar but it's there (and probably better or worse depending on manufacturer). And you can reduce tomato sauce in it without killing the patina because there is none. If the anti-stick properties degrade sodium percarbonate should fix that, stripping oil and polymerised oil and everything out of the microstructure. It's basically good ole enamel but with rougher surface. Kind of like those fancy lotus effect sinks.
If your go-to is stainless then I don't think there's real advantages, if you want a second pan then I'd go with iron for actual anti-stick, and do those tomato sauces in stainless.
