"Thermal shock" doesn't necessarily mean it burned; it can also mean that it spontaneously shattered.
"Rapid unscheduled disassembly" is when an assembly (i.e. made out of multiple parts) grenades itself.
I was thinking more of situations when a piece made from a single material breaks, like when an enshittified soda-lime Pyrex dish suddenly shatters because you were silly enough to try to use it like real borosilicate Pyrex was intended to be used.
