Convection has been standard for ovens for over 10 years. My 13 year old KitchAid oven from a big box store has convection. It wasn't even promoted until air friers became popular.

Also all microwaves with bake feature are convection ovens. Again it was normal, but now they put big "like air frier" stickers on them to let people know.

I’ll take your word for that, I don’t know anyone who has bought an oven in the last decade. 😅 Every home/apartment I’ve lived in has had basic appliances and every home I’ve visited even with older mid-range hasn’t. I’ve also never seen a microwave with “bake” function in person. But I might live in a different circle than you as well.

I bought my oven 20 years ago. Convection ovens were for sale but at a premium and I thought it was a gimmick and didn't want to buy in. I've never used one either and I may have the same experience as you, old houses and poor friends? Lol.

I also haven’t seen many of those combo ovens, most people just use commodity microwaves
