I can understand this, but anyone born after 1970 probably had their bottles heated in a microwave and have grown up with one. That makes it likely that they were taught as infants you never put metal into a microwave, and although there are some exceptions (they probably don't know them)
In fact, anyone with a computer capable of playing youtube videos or a tv with the discovery channel has seen the effect of a microwave on a CD.
On the other hand, a coffee percolator is not a young person's device, only people who drank their coffee before Mr. Coffee, Melita filters, and Starbucks would even think of using one. I'm sure there are a lot of older people out there who would buy one but have never quite grasped the concept of no metal in a micro. :-)
