Even cheap-ish microwaves have "defrost" and "reheat" functions that ought to do the job more or less correctly (defrost will pulsate the magnetron to allow ice to melt into a water layer that's easier to heat up, reheat uses a steam sensor to roughly gauge the amount of food).
Most people are just impatient monkeys who hit the "max power" setting 100% of the time and will not, under any circumstances, take five minutes to learn to use the reheat function or lower the power level.
