So what? You already have electricity. If you don't have a gas line to your house, you aren't going to get one for a gas stove. Again, gas stoves are secondary to having gas in the first place, focusing on them is nonsense whether someone wants gas or not.

You said "gas stoves are easiest to replace" when in fact if that is what you have, replacing it with anything but another gas stove is difficut (or at least, more expensive)
Replacing a gas stove with an electric stove is much easier and less expensive in the long run than replacing water heaters and furnaces with electric versions.

Also this isn't about replacing a working stove in an existing building it's about substituting electric versions for gas versions if there are no gas lines, so I think you missed the entire context of the thread.
