If you've ever cooked on one, you'll know that gas stoves are far superior to electric.
The issue here isn't the stove, but the ventilation of the home. It's not hard to properly install a range hood and roof vent for your kitchen, along with a passive inlet for airflow(I've done this twice and I'm no expert at construction).
Humans have been cooking with fire for a bloody long time, and we've gotten very good at making it safe. I'd wager that this is just energy companies lobbying against gas, as they can make more money burning coal/oil to power electric stoves.
Induction is far superior to gas which is far superior to electric.
Gas is problematic for a lot of reasons:
Gas has some benefits to induction, but if it was invented today very few people would use it because it's so much worse than induction.
This comment isn't to say "people who use gas are bad or in danger", it's just saying at the technical level and from a societal perspective there's no meaningful reason to use gas as your main heating element's source of power.
You forgot that the induction glass top doesn’t get as hot because the heating happens in the pan. It’s safer if you have children and it is much easier to clean than gas or resistive electric.
Also there’s no open flame in your house, your kitchen rag won’t catch on fire by mistake.
Even better: If there is no pan/pot on top no heat is generated.
