Since the beginning I had microwave ovens without a turning plate, because heat source is radiation, not fire. I can't understand why new ones have a turning plate now. Is there something I don't understand, or is it really a useless feature?

There's hot spots in the microwave, the tray rotates your food through those to help heat more evenly.

As long as you don't center your food on the turn table!
