I’m far from a fan of natural gas - I’m a realist.

Have you run the numbers on capex to switch everyone to heat pumps, or looked at available grid capacity required if everyone switched?

I’m not saying it’s impossible period - I’m saying no one is being realistic about the cost or trade offs, and seems to be under the delusion that some (most of the time) fanciful faceplate capacity number and cheap price for one part of the story means everything is solved.

It’s time to do the math.
