    You are clearly knowledgeable enough to know how drivers and microwaves work, yet stupid enough to not have some common sense. Metal absorbs much more energy than water in a microwave, so it wasn’t going to boil that off anyway. Likely what happened is a high current being induced with some combination of the coil overheating and burning through. Usually we call this condition as it relates to electronics as “fcked”.
