A lot of people don't realise that you can push both the up and down button at the same time to set a hob ring to zero intensity. So level 9 to level 2 is actually just three presses.

On mine 2 back to 9 is 7 presses. Use case: adding more water to rice.

It would be nice if these hobs had both temperature and intensity settings. That way it would turn up automatically in the situation you describe.

Maybe yes, maybe no. Parents stove does that, mine does not. Getting a burner to 1 out of 9 takes a stupid amount of time (~15 seconds).
