isn’t the so called seasoning just the brown shit on the bottom of the stainless pots that you couldn’t clean off if you tried… or used barkeepers friend and scrubbed for 30min per square inch? I had cast iron once and I oiled and baked it a couple times then just washed it with dish soap like everything else and put it on the burner’s residual heat and had seemingly nk problems. Then somehow my mom made it fully coated in rust one day and I have no idea what she did
