A S'phardic Rabbi told me tonight that

   1.  this is NOT assur as per Hazal
   2. A poor person may l'chatchila use metal and glass for both [metal
   using nat bar nat]
   3. the Rema et al. came up with this policy

I countered with a long diatribe but I prefaced it with [a guzma] that 80%
of what we do is post-Talmudic anyway

If this Rav is incorrect WRT the pots - I'd like to know.
