Hi there! Thanks for the feedback. I certainly don't advocate for consuming tin.
With proper use the amount of tin that comes off a pan is generally regarded as insignificant. As other people have pointed out, tin is terrible at being absorbed via your GI tract (rendering it generally harmless). It's also worth noting, the FDA categorizes tin lined copper cookware as safe for general use.

The thickness of the pan was absolutely chosen because of how quickly it heats up. Our logic is that the types of foods typically cooked in pans that size, don't need to be cooked for very long periods. Eggs, bacon, pancakes, even chicken breast or vegetables don't generally need the 3mm thick walls that soup pots have.
