Again, I didn't look at your link. It's odd, but I don't think I've ever looked at "what's more efficient, gas or electric water heaters?" It's always, what's the most eff. gas water heater you can get, what's the most eff. electric one... never a direct comparison. Prolly because I work with utilities, and telling someone that one was more efficient than the other would encourage fuel switching, which is a no no. So, generally, the eff of a water heater is determined by the level of insulation within it, because continously heating that stored water is the biggest energy suck. An electric or gas tankless heater eliminates that problem, and so is really the most efficient. If I was going to plunk money down on an expensive water heater, that's what I'd get (and I'd get electric because we don't have a gas line and because I can buy "green energy".)

Welcome! My husband and I are big on unconditional parenting, though also somewhat new to the concept having been raised by conditional families in a conditional society. We're in SE.
