Just like a coal stove, there’s a learning curve to using cast iron pans. My wife is still on that curve! To be honest...and I may be the exception...I clean my pans thoroughly after every use.

We also clean our pans, with soap and water. Then heat over flame to dry and wipe down with EVOO. Three on the stove at all times and bought a big Dutch Oven recently that resides in the oven when not being used.
Biggest problem here is wifey putting wet ones on stove to dry, then forgetting them until the house is full of smoke and the seasoning is gone again.

Cast Iron pots and pans work spectacularly with induction ranges, wherein the more magnetic the pan is the better (more efficiently and quicker, as in less electricity required) it will be heated.
We have an expensive "induction range approved" Circulon pan and a cast iron pan of the same size, and on the same burner the Circulon pan needs to be set at 5.5 to 6 on the dial to cook with the same heat as for the cast iron pan when set at 3 to 3.5.

Rachel Ray...that cooking channel chick that's all bouncy and bubbly to the point of being obnoxious. She may not even be on TV anymore for all I know. Think she is originally from the Lake George area. Cute little Italian girl.
