Probably affects the curser as much as the victim. Your question could provoke another experiment to test this, however. I am not sure that any experiment with seed germination can be said to prove anything,; as you say, they are just so completely unpredictable. What I would like to know is why?

BTW, I'd use cholent beans next time. Those things are hardy to say the least! I was once cleaning out my sink and found a sprouting bean in the drain that must have survived being cooked, then washed out of the pot before it decided to live in my sink!

That bit of information really made me very leery of microwaving food. You're brilliant. I never even thought to test it. Thank you so much for doing this. I may follow your lead and do the same with my children to teach them the value of research rather than accepting things at face value.
