GE had that option (Sensi-Temp) back in the late 50's. They discontinued it around the 70's or 80's and recently brought it back. Frigidaire had the same option, they called it "Heat Minder" which this particular range does not have, but it was available on the higher end units. https://www.reddit.com/r/Mid_Century/comments/l5lf6i/own_a_vintage_frigidaire_stove_has_a_heat_minder/
