We built with gas heating in 2017 because it saved us many thousands of euros. Our entire underfloor heating system is designed for low temperature, it could be directly switched to a heat pump. However, I see no reason for that.
We have about 18000 kWh per year at 170 sqm with a fireplace and solar thermal with the basic supplier at 9.6 cents per kWh. (A high gas price unfortunately also drives up electricity.)

That's true. Most experts here neglect that we also want to phase out coal by 2035 when it comes to the electricity price. That means we will need enormous amounts of gas or hydrogen to cover the gaps in sun and wind.
There will easily be enough gas left for the few people who stick to their gas heating.
Your 18,000 kWh gas consumption is indeed quite high. Do you heat to 25°C room temperature?
What many probably don't know... the heat calculation according to the building energy law is done at 19°C... so at 21°C you already need 12-15% more energy than calculated...
