Actually I think this one makes sense. In the 'conventional' setup:
"off"->"low"->"high" I almost always kill the flame when reducing the heat
in a hurry (over boiling hollandaise, I love asparagus...)
With the setup in the Westie stove you just slam it left an it will stop
at the the minimum, without extinguishing.
