Do you have any statistics regarding how likely a water eruption is? Because I microwaved water daily for nearly a decade without issue.
The turnstile removes most of the risk because super heating is a lot more difficult with moving water. Plus, most glasses aren’t perfectly smooth and have plenty of imperfections to provide nucleation points.
Explain to me how lab statistics would help? Then explain how you could generate useful statistics using the extremely non-standardized settings of every unique household in the world?
Now that the absurdity of wanting statistics is set aside… Microwave caused superheating of water is a well studied and understood phenomenon. There are things that reduce the likelihood, sure: air bubbles created by modern low-flow taps, general impurity of tap water, and scratches in used containers all provide nucleation points and reduce the likelihood of superheating.
All it takes is jossling a new mug so the air bubbles all float out, with a particularly clean supply of city water (or filtered is a common culprit) and that thing you’ve been doing for years blows up in your face at 105oC.
