No, of course we don’t microwave the mug WITH the teabag in it. We microwave the teabag separately.

Could be a problem if you microwave it together with the tea bag.
Also I find microwaves to not heat up the water properly, leaving some cold spots.
Hard to believe that cold spots could stay for more than a moment with the Brownian motion.
Do you not add gelatin to your water before making tea?
Modified corn starch, miss me with those animal products (I actually am not vegan).
So give it a quick stir? Also if it’s at a boil, the bubbles are going to mix the fluid well.
The microwaves will heat your water more evenly than a kettle.
Liquids have this amazing property, that if you heat them , they auto-stir just by themselves.
(But personally, I’m uneasy about microwaving a tea bag with paper on one end, or worse, a staple. There’s probably no problem at all, but it doesn’t feel that way.)
