Yes, my point was that microwaves are advertised as a 'throw your lunch in and get it warm in 1-2 minutes' appliance, but kinda like an LLM, they require some manual effort to do it well (or decently, depending on your standards).
Like:
1- Put it on the edge of the plate, not in the middle
2- Check every X seconds and give it a stir
3- Don't put metal in
4- Don't put sealed things in
5- Adjust time for wetness
6- Probably don't put in dry things? (I believe you needed water for a microwave to really work? Not sure, haven't tried heating a cup of flour or making a caramel in the microwave)
7- Consider that some things heat weirdly, for example bread heats stupid quick and then turns into stone equally as quick once you take it out.
