baking vs frying (self.castiron)

Anyone else notice that their seasoning does better (aka increases more) when baking or roasting as opposed to frying? I guess it’s why we season in the oven generally but I feel like I hear people saying “just cook with it” but never differentiating between in the oven and on the stove.

I have pans I only.use for frying and my seasoning is phenomenal where as my baking pans are just ok.

Honestly the best way to season the pan is just cook anything with it I don't think itatters
