What I would like to know is if we will ever have microwaves that stop the spinning plate in the same place that they started. It's XXI century, I want to take out my cup as easily as I've put it in.
It could easily be done, but would only work if: you don't stop the cycle manually by opening the door, or you are ok with the microwave quickly spinning your food (or liquid filled cup) to the starting position as soon as you do open the door.
No, what it should do is:
This way you can stop the plate manually at any position but when operating microwave in the usual way you get the benefit of the cup always pointing the right way.
That can be done, just takes a more expensive Platten motor, and some more code in the control unit.
