I kept burning my food or wait forever for the pan to heat up and I finally understand why. Each knob has a different direction for the Hi and Lo (also why isn’t it Low).

You have double burners. Some of your knobs have two HI and two LO positions, one for one burner and one for both burners.
On top of the stove this looks like two concentric heating elements. You can turn on one or both. Turning on both is sometimes called a “fast boil” burner.
The best solution the industry has come up with is to put two control surfaces into one knob, so instead of the control surface being a full circle it’s a half circle.
There’s no way to make all the knobs match in appearance unless all the burners have optional double burner operation.

Yes they’re double burners but the Lo -> Hi rotation is different for each position which is infuriating, but only mildly.
I see what you mean.
What they should do is make the rule: “clockwise is hotter”, and make all the LO…HI arcs increase in the clockwise direction.
Then no matter which burner you’re adjusting, you know it’s a clockwise movement.
They should also have a little LED light bar that changes length to show how high that burner’s setting. As you turn clockwise, it lengthens toward “full on”.
The LED light bar should light up whenever a knob is touched.
Need high temp LEDs too I guess.
