This person was arguing with multiple people about how electric is superior to gas. In an effort to prove me wrong about how electric cooktops work, they posted a wiring diagram for an oven thermostat.
Update : after their snarky reply, I looked closer at the manual they posted, and it’s for a stove with gas burners. So even if they were right, that component wouldn’t exist on that particular appliance. It would indeed produce a steady heat though.
It gets even better, I just realised this, but the manual he posted was for a stove with gas burners and an electric oven.
So even if things did work the way he claims, that component wouldn’t exist on this particular appliance.
If you look at the guy’s posting history, you’ll see that he’s extremely confident - and also completely wrong - about many things.
Yeah, that’s pretty spectacular actually. They really need a better hobby than arguing with strangers on the Internet.
