A Climate Town video convinced me natural gas actually manages to be worse.

Natural gas is methane, and it's extremely hard to handle that without having any leaks, ever. And since methane is a very powerful greenhouse gas, it doesn't take that much leaked gas to cross the line into "worse than coal".

And there are lots of leaks.
