>I prefer microwaves with single ding at the end to one that is beeping every 3 seconds
I forgot my food in beeping oven constantly, just because I semi-opened it to prevent beeps but did not extract contents because it was too hot. Even when I look at it, the fact that the door is not closed automagically means to my brain that there is nothing inside.
How it should be done: ding once, light inside. Open door -> turn it off.
