I don’t like electric can openers. I strongly prefer to just use a manual one. I just see an appliance that has but one use and requires electricity to be tremendous waste.
Not to mention they’re kind of hard to clean! Electric can openers are the worst. When the top pops off, they often send the contents of the can all over, too.
3000% honesty, you are right. It is a waste, using a good manual can opener is far more satisfying. Like the electricity needed for the electric one is miniscule at best but its still wasted since it rakes 10 seconds to open one with a manual. I get people who are differently abled and need these, but the average person gets no real value from an electric one.

I love my P-38 can opener. It was made 80 years ago and it’s still opening cans like tin foil.

I didn’t even know electric can openers were a thing
Making things electric was the “adding AI” of 20 years ago. Make something that works more complex and difficult to use, but the future!
More like 40 years!
That said, I loved my electric opener from 92’.
There was a knack to it, but I could be done opening a can before someone even started with a manual opener.
Never seen back to the future? One in the opening scene.

Wow I have never had an electric can opener, are they common in home kitchens?
I was given a manual one a few weeks ago with no instructions, check out this horror show:
I open cans with a flat head screwdriver and find it easier
