To be honest, the microwave thing outrages me far more than the salt thing.

But why? The water will be hot either way. Who cares how it gets that way?

I suspect that's some sloppy writing. I think we are being cautioned against microwaving the water with the teabag in

Nope!

I’m 100% against microwaving water to heat it up. And it’s completely unreasonable! But I really won’t do it at all and scoff at those that do 😁

I’m also perfectly happy to use a microwave for any other purpose. As far as I understand, it’s actually one of the healthier methods to cook food.
