As a Real Professional Chef, this is absolutely stupid. This thing isn’t going to be able to tell if you’re using cast iron, carbon steel, aluminum, tri-ply steel, etc. Nor will it know the make and model of your oven, or your specific oven that may not work as well now that its 5/10/15 years old.

American Airlines didn't skimp on their coach customers either, apparently.

Premium car-makers, I hope you're listening. I'm using Lexus as an example, but, really, anyone could play this game. A premium Soul. An Acura based on an enlarged N-Box. An Infiniti based on a heavily reworked Cube. A Lincoln designed around a truncated Flex-like car.
