    Having made a lot of sauces and stocks and whatever else in stainless steel pots, I’m not sure I understand what the purpose is here. Having to stir less frequently so it doesn’t burn on the bottom?

      The frying pan has a copper clad bottom, this allows for a more even heat without hot spots lessening the frequency of stirring and the possibility of burning. The stainless stockpot is only one layer the direct heat would burn much easier especially eith high sugar sugar sauces like tomato.
