Silly people,. The just don't know how to cook.

No, you cannot season it. You have to heat the pan, then add some oil, then
cook. Some stuff will stick a b it and under certain circumstances, that is
good. The stuck stuff in call the "fond" and when you deglaze the pan it
help make a flavorful sauce.

I don't use SS for eggs because a Teflon coated pan work best for that.
Cast iron is often used too, but some things just do better in a good SS
pan.
