There is a real difference for things like baking - I’m not saying it’s impossible to compensate with electric, but you’d have to adjust your process to get the same result
They would have to be more scummy and also at least similarly competent… Google can’t innovate for crap, but they’re pretty good at maintaining projects (when they don’t randomly kill them off)
