If you’re having a mass evacuation you can’t very well use your appliances. What’s the point of this nitpick?

I never brought up mass evacuations?

But just pointing out gas and electric both cause them?

Not to the same degree they don't. Evacuations due to safety issues and service disruptions with gas are common. Evacuations due to safety issues with electrical service are not.
