I could imagine that having a separate induction thing (burner? no...hob?...no) would be great for boiling pasta or deep frying both because of speed and safety.
I suppose if frying is being done it ought to be under the hood.
I still am not sure about how to avoid the superhot ring in the pan effect of the magnet. I suppose the diffuser thingster would do that, but at a loss of power and responsiveness
