      Mine doesn’t have that button, but I exercise a similar strategy.

      Need 1 minute? Too many buttons. 111 will be fine.

      5 minutes? No. 444. Close enough.

      10 minutes is 999 of course.

      Etc.

      My pet peeve recently is that some microwaves don’t also automatically start when you push +30, forcing me to push an extra button…

        Look at this nerd setting the power level. Just cook it on full blast like everyone else. Just let whatever it is sit and the lava parts will warm up the frozen parts eventually.

        Normal person: guess I have to enter the correct cook time

        Me: enter cook time as 5 and start and then you can still smash +30 sec

          See, that’s the thing. I still can’t tell if you’re talking about several buttons, or if you’re talking about buttons located in parking lots. You’re saving a miniscule amount of time at best.
