But you STILL need a CO detector inside.

Howlin... people burned propane for heat and cooking in their homes for years and years without a CO detector. You do agree with that don't you?

But you STILL need a CO detector inside.

It's certainly a good idea, but I don't think it's required. At least not around here. All the homes I've been in over the years that had gas stoves did NOT have a CO detector. Of course, the CO detector is a relatively new phenomenon on the market, having come around in the last 10-15 years. When I grew up, those and even smoke detectors weren't around.

I have a ventless gas fireplace - no CO detector came with the house despite that, though I bought one as I'm a little suspicious of ventless fireplaces.
