my range pilot lights to eliminate that extra heat in the house and to

indoors in hot weather. Pilot lights are really not needed on ranges.
Just keep a cig lighter next to the stove, and use that to ignite the
flame. But some people seem to want everything "instant on". To me,
stuff like that is insignificant. So it takes me an extra 5 seconds to
flick my bic... Who cares.

Our oven didnt' have a pilot, and that was lit with a match. Somehow
the flame was sucked off the match to the burner, and the match wasn't
burning anymore. Spooky.
