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.

How in the hell did this make it to market?
My dryer has a “less dry” setting.
Who likes their laundry done rare?
