Steel is like 98% iron. Sorry for the mistake.

But cast iron doesn't contain steel, it contains iron and carbon

What do you think carbon steel is made from?

Cast iron and steel are largely similar materials, cast iron just has the carbon precipitated out of solution instead of trapped in a crystalline structure

But we're talking specifically about cast iron. We're not talking about carbon steel at all, hence my confusion on why it was brought up in this comment chain

You're taking this way too personally

All the blather you morons make about disinformation, and then you try argue chemistry on how you feel.
