If they ban gas boilers what will all those now unused flames do? Will they be hanging about on street corners? Sorry very silly but I am just saying

I lived in a house with an old 1970s warm air gas boiler. It had a constant pilot flame to ignite the main gas burners when called for when the room thermostat called for heat. It was a little friend and could be seen through a small port hole in the main boiler casing. For safety it played onto a bi-metallic strip so that if it was blown out gas did not escape and build up. The pilot light valve would close if the bi-metallic strip got cold.
That warm air gas boiler was great. It also heated the water in the copper cylinder. The warm air system was very quick in warming the house when you first returned home in the cold weather.
I miss it.
