This appears to be another 'old wives tale'. I once heard someone tell a story about how they would always put a brick in the oven when baking pies because ' their mother said that it made the pie turn out better. She traced back and found a picture of her great great grandmother backing and noticed a brick in the oven as well. The only thing was, the brick was placed to level the shelf. She then asked her grandmother about this and they all realized that it may have been tradition but the origination was not really due to anything besides an issue with the oven.
Long story short, most of these tales are just that but his one sounds as if it is a resistance to change (natural gas heat instead of other means of heat) and that is something that is inevitable.
