While this is a meme and a joke, have you ever wondered why both oven and microwave have a power adjust but you only adjust the one on the oven and the food mysteriously tastes better from it?
It still blasts it at full power, but it cycles on and off. So 1 minute at 50% power will only run for 30 seconds, but it gives it time to warm through.
It doesn’t cook outside in or inside out but both get the same amount of power. Problem is that microwave doesn’t do it evenly and lower power allows the heat to spread more evenly instead of couple auper heated spots drying while some parta are still cold. Rotating plate is a hack to try spread the radiation more evenly but doesn’t work too well.

You’re telling my I don’t need to blast my food with 1000W every time?
How else am I going to get Mustafar on the outside and Hoth on the inside?

Expensive microwaves can actually vary their power output
Herecy or orthodox? Now fight
This is not even remotely the same thing…
Ovens cook food from the outside in, this means higher temperatures can burn the outside.
Microwaves cook food from the inside out (sort of). You can get away with higher power for this reason for most foods.

Smaller masses help. Say for mashed potatoes, make essentially a ring on the plate as opposed to a big lump
While good in theory, in reality I never eat so little that I could possibly do that.
Mine microwave doesn’t :<
