I think the general reason for that is more about the turntable. There are always going to be hot and cold spots in a microwave just based on how they work, they can’t eliminate them. So spinning the food around means that sometimes it is in a hot spot and sometimes in a cold spot… Except the very center where it is basically just rotating in place. It is either going to be a hot or a cold spot more than likely, and whatever food is stuck there is going to burn or never cook.

So ideally, just make sure your plate isn’t centered and you’ll be good?
