Completely and fully agree that gas is far superior for a hob, but a common reason for changing to electric is to avoid costly annual gas checks in rented property.
This may be a regional difference but around here if a property has a gas supply then it is pretty likely to have gas heating too which negates that potential saving.
I would certainly be very upset if my landlord replaced the gas hob with electric, it was the main selling point for the flat as far as I was concerned when I viewed it.
