It's also faster than boiling a pot of water on the stove so you can save time if you run it through the kettle and then poor it into a pot on the stove to boil whatever you were making.
Which can also be done with the microwave without having to get an extra device
Microwave can heat MORE water than a kettle, too. Unless your microwave is oddly small or your kettle freakishly huge, that is
Or you don't own a microwave.
Microwaving water is exceedingly dangerous and should never be done.
No, it's not, and you shouldn't spread old wives tales as though they're truth
Please educate yourself. Your dig on me at the end is unironically complete projection as you are spreading dangerous information.

Ironic considering I already knew you were talking about superheating, which requires an incredibly smooth container and multiple microwaving attempts to pull off
You can prevent such dangers by: not double-microwaving your water (even then it's a low chance), using a rougher cup, or sticking anything (like a spoon) in there while you heat it
But sure, keep acting like a rare occurrence under incredibly specific circumstances is something to be deathly afraid of. Whatever floats your boat. Just stop spreading it around.
It’s really shocking the degree of condescension that exudes from you. It’s like you’re trying to cover up your own insecurities or something. Hmm…
Quite simple, really:
Someone said something blatantly false on the Internet and tried to be smarmy back when they're wrong. Might I also add: nice projection.
If it makes you feel better to think I'm in some way insecure about a simple fact (that the video from OP goes over as well, btw) then I guess feel free but it only makes you look like a bigger idiot to me.
Blah blah blah. /out
Ah, you're a child
Stay mad that you're wrong rather than learn a basic fact about the world you weirdo
We’ll just go ahead and block you and get back to some semblance of normality. Go get some help buddy.
The projection is staggering
So mad that I hit reply on a website, pathetic
