Do rotating plates in microwaves help when heating food? - eviltoast

Microwaves tend to come in 2 types, ones with a rotating plate and ones without. Assuming everything else is equal about a microwave does rotating the food assist with the reheating?

    No you’re completely missing the point.

    It’s about how much of the volume the object can take up due to the plate spinning.

    If it’s perfectly centered, it only takes up its own volume. If it is off to the side it swoops around and takes up the volume that it takes up but on every quadrant of the plate as it rotates

    I don’t have any interest in discussing this with you any further
