It’s not. The kettle attracts and holds ~~heavy metals~~ minerals and lime that would remain in the water of your glazed or glass mug after microwaving.
Which is why you should descale your kettles and coffe machines every now and then

I've microwaved water and there is always this foam at the top. Furthermore I think the kettle takes away some of the Particles since mine always has timescales after a few days.
Using a kettle is not just a British thing, it is always a good idea to boil water, let it cool down and then drink, I recently read that it also reduces micro plastics by at least %70
