Maybe because creating a touch-sensitive surface that can heat up to cooking temperatures without melting the electronics next to it is harder than it seems?

Just because something is in an After Effects mockup doesn't mean it's practical to engineer.

I suspect the heater grid might be tricky or expensive, though.
