strung together this:

An oven is a fixed appliance and as such should be connected via a switched
fused spur,

No, it can be fitted with a plugtop or wired in via a switched fused
spur.

socket outlets are for portable appliances if it was designed to
be on a 13a plugtop it would have to be supplied with one fitted.

Just because it doesn't come with one doesn't mean there is a problem
with using a plugtop. A gas hob doesn't come with a fitted plug, and
neither does a cooker hood and these draw a few watts each.
