There are differences between gas and electric for sure. Electric ovens
with typically hold a tighter temperature tolerance than gas ovens and
gas ovens introduce humidity into the oven from the combustion that
electric ovens do not. I don't believe either is a must have better
than, certainly not the way the cook top burners are.

Personally I have a dual fuel range with LP burners up top and electric
convection main oven and electric side oven which seems to give me the
best of everything. I've also used commercial double stack convection
ovens in both gas and electric and not found much operational difference
between them.
