Wrong. It would be incredibly impractical, not to mention outright
dangerous, to use gasoline or diesel as a fuel for cooking stoves. One
could also argue against propane or alcohol stoves for the other dangers
they present.


I think his point was that you need fuel to burn the stove anyway, why
not carry alcohol or propane instead of losing efficiency through the
inverter chain?
