No, it's called experience with the device and situation at hand
I'm not claiming superheating doesn't exist, I'm pointing out that the top level claim of "this is super dangerous" is fucking bunk
The people who've been burnt by super heated water also have experience with the device and situation at hand.
They'd not experience this situation as, like another commenter stated, even a pyrex glass has nucleation sites for boiling
If they've double-microwaved the water then they have a chance at superheating, but that is not the same situation as just microwaving water in a pyrex cup, the thing that was being called extremely dangerous
But sure, well just keep being scared of doing it at all because some people can't remember that they already heated something
