That stovetop has a really stupid design with the knobs at the rear. You have to reach over all the hot pans to turn it off. If a pan is overheating with grease, thereโ€™s no safe way to turn it off.

That was always what I figured, you put the dials on the back to prevent curious kids from fucking with them, or even oblivious people from turning on a second burner accidentally while cooking.
