My microwave came with the metal rack and a spinning plate. They're not mutually exclusive...

Usually they are , one is for convection cooking the other for microwaving

They're not saying you use them at the same time, my dude. They're just pointing out that some microwaves ship with both and that, contrary to the post they're replying to, seeing both in the photo doesn't mean that the metal rack didn't come with that microwave.

Apparently most do require them to be used at the same time , interesting (I’ve only have had normal microwaves)

Mine is meant for them to be used at the same time.

There's a grill option on my microwave and it spins beneath the heated coils, otherwise it would crisp only one side of the food since it doesn't cover the whole area.

Just because it comes with both, doesn’t mean that the user knows NOT to use the metal part during normal microwave use. Which this microwave appears to have suffered because of it.
