Also if possible leave a void in the center of the plate/bowl. If I remember correctly something about the distribution of microwaves around something like 1" of the center are weaker than the area around it.
I think the general reason for that is more about the turntable. There are always going to be hot and cold spots in a microwave just based on how they work, they can’t eliminate them. So spinning the food around means that sometimes it is in a hot spot and sometimes in a cold spot… Except the very center where it is basically just rotating in place. It is either going to be a hot or a cold spot more than likely, and whatever food is stuck there is going to burn or never cook.
Only if there isn’t any food at the center of the plate. If you are doing something like a bowl of soup it is better to put it toward the edge of the turntable so it moves more. Basically, you want the food to go on an adventure and see as many different places inside the microwave as possible.
Edit Whoops, misread your “isn’t” for “is” somehow, lol. Basically yea.

So ideally, just make sure your plate isn’t centered and you’ll be good?
