I'm happy to accept that I was wrong, in fact this is a very interesting bit of technology! I didn't intend to be rude, unlike you, clearly.

I'd also like to add that beamforming, despite the name, does not actually involve creating a directed beam. As I described the antenna still sends a signal out in all directions - multiple antennae work together to create an interference pattern with a stronger signal where a device is located. While I wasn't aware of this technology, it is not as "directed" as the name implies and wouldn't necessarily have applications inside a microwave oven, especially since the wavelengths used are pretty long, so I don't think they would not have much flexibility to create the kind of precise pattern that cooking something while skipping the empty space would require.

Well then the average is just 1 isn't it. It doesn't make any sense to integer-ise your inputs but leave your output rounded.

No, you probably don't remember the crappy ones from when you were a kid, but they were there. Survivorship bias.

A pizza is larger than two of another just before it hits 1.5 times the radius (sqrt 2 times, to be exact, about 1.41). So if the radius is 1.5 times bigger, like in the OP, you always know it's more than twice the area.

They aren't both fully open, but in the day time I breathe normally through both. I don't get the OP scenario any more but I used to, it's a different feeling to the normal cycle in my experience.

I have a love/hate relationship with mine. It does help with allergies and the constant runny nose that I had... But it's genuinely an awful experience lol. I feel like I'm gonna vomit every time.

If I'm asking directions I'm probably not somewhere where I have a good sense of what's north based on local knowledge. Yeah, I can probably find North here in my home town... But I wouldn't know any of that about New York.
