I generally use large stainless pans and stuff too, but there are some
times when you really want to use cast iron.
For example, I always sear steaks for two minutes on each side in a cast
iron skillet, then move them to the grill. It prevents the steak from
drying out and helps seal in the flavor of the sea salt and black pepper
rub...

I guess I won't discount it just yet. But linoleum sure sounds easy. :)
