Opening your oven door after you are done cooking to heat up your kitchen is absolutely terrible advice! Modern ovens often have complicated electronics in the panel just above the oven door. This is a fast way to ruin the electronics resulting in a huge repair bill.

Also running the cleaning cycle is a huge energy hog- many oven manufacturers don’t even want you to clean your oven more than once a year because it is such a rough cycle to put your oven through at high heat. You could have said “wipe down the oven walls, clean up spills etc.”. Using the high heat oven cycle is rough on your oven and a terrible waste of energy.
Please remove these recommendations! I love your other suggestions like coordinating roasting veggies while baking bread or making meringues etc but keep the oven doors closed! YIKES!
