Im not sure what you are responding too exactly, I mentioned that the temp settings are a good thing. I have no idea why you mentioned boiling water at a lower temp....
It was just funny because the way you worded it could be interpreted to mean "why would someone buy a kettle that boils water at a lower or higher temp, just wait longer". (If you set the kettle to a lower temp, it won't boil unless it's at a higher altitude because the kettle shuts off at that temp.)
Ahhhhh I see. And here I thought I knew words. You right.
