You can season aluminum and I think steel (although I don't see the benefit of steel)

Yes. Aluminum sheet pans for baking and roasting are awesome. They take a seasoning really well and when fully seasoned to a dark brown/black they become amazing tools for browning and roasting foods!

Really? I've never tried but now I'm interested

Yes, look up Helen Rennie on YouTube. She does a bunch of tests and explains how to do it.

I could be wrong, but I think carbon steel skillets and woks are supposed to be treated the same way as cast iron.

Carbon steel, yes. Stainless steel, no (you can season that one too, but the coating will not stick to the pan well due to the steel's smoother surface).

Steel can work really well with seasoning, but not stainless steel. I have a steel griddle top and a steel pizza pan that are well seasoned now to being mostly non-stick.

I don’t know what kind of steel you’d call them but probably not carbon steel nor stainless steel
