the mirror is reflecting the light emitted by the lamp better than a wall will do.

Will it? Maybe. You are making the assumption that specular reflection is better at reflecting than diffuse reflection, but that is a false assumption. It depends on the reflectivity of the wall and the mirror. A white wall can reflect more light than a mirror.

So then the recommendation should be ‘never boil filtered water in the microwave, and never boil filtered water in a new pot on a stove’, not ‘never boil water in a microwave’.

Edit: or maybe ‘Never boil filtered water in a glass or ceramic container’ that makes it clear that the method of heating is irrelevant, it’s the condition of the water and container that is important.

I’ve boiled water in the microwave thousands of times, it’s never been superheated. It’s does not easily happen in a microwave.

Every time I’ve seen someone test out this microwave myth, they use distilled water and a new container.

Exactly the same as water being superheated in a microwave, no nucleation sites.

There’s nothing special about a microwave that will superheat water. You can superheat water on a stovetop, but nobody ever says not to boil water on a stove.
