I’m still not sure about non stick pans myself. At home I am going to move away from any non stick cookware. Once you think the pan is scratched you shouldn’t use it. So it becomes pointless to buy more if it’s going to get scratched again…
If you live in the USA and you go out to eat chances are you will be eating something off of non stick material, especially eggs.
Also, a mature cast iron pan very much has nonstick properties. I remember threads on Reddit about people freaking out that well meaning but misinformed people scrubbed the surface layer off their cast iron cookware, because that takes a long time to form and is essentially a natural nonstick coating.

I don’t trust the safety of it personally.

cast iron and carbon steel cookware can have non stick properties if you used/taken care of correctly
not sure what you can do if it is in your water
