We no longer need to deliver natural gas into cities to deliver power to a process, that was the original argument. Delivering it as a feedstock and or specific chemical heat source, sure.

Running a small induction forge takes ~20kW or so, about the max deliverable to a house, so no. This output is achievable with gas.

From the comment I responded to:

> tl;dr the need to deliver gas to anything other than a grid scale powerplant is over.

This is untrue. I explicitly acknowledged that the context is mostly in household use (did you miss that?), but this statement goes too far.
