Strictly speaking of the chemical side of things, teflon at it’s normal temperature, is very inert and won’t interact with anything inside your body, that’s doesn’t mean you can eat 1 kilogram of it and be fine.
The point was, if you accidentally scrap the bottom of a pan and ingest a tiny bit of the coating with the food, that won’t make any big harm as most alarmists suggest.
I still wouldn’t eat teflon and have slowly changed to mostly stainless steel, which is superior in cooking if you know how to use it. Gonna get myself some cast iron as well but I’d like a larger kitchen to properly start kitting out. What I want in the end is silver cookware.
The point is, your “facts” are probably more correct than science in the 50’s, but the fact is those “facts” are still essentially company propaganda to make people not panic over having eaten off of neurotoxins for 50 years.
Or like, are you so naive you don’t understand companies like DuPont lying through their teeth?
There’s a nice video about it from Veritasium.

I’ve heard the argument several times, yeah.
