>Your original claim is that they are "likely." This is wrong.
^Please^ carefully re-read my comments, no where did I profess; "likely." < Are you confusing the video content with me?
>The platen glass is doped with a microwave absorbance metal to provide some protection to the magnetron.
^ IS correct ^, the fact that you; not believe your claim is true because "microwave absorbance metal"
means the glass will heat up faster < Simply means you do not know, run you microwave empty for 60sec (NOT recomended)
feel the platen, it is hotter than ambient temperature, microwave energy has been absorbed across the large surface area.
