I don’t understand how this could happen unless that pot is somehow plastic? Maybe 3D printed?
It's aluminum, and I have seen it first hand. My brother is not attentive... He almost burned the house down a couple times.
Those coil heaters put out a lot of heat at full power. Once all the water evaporates, that heat raises the temperature of the pan very quickly.
Don't set a pot to boil and then go do something else in a different room, especially if that something else is playing age of empires.
But if you watch it, it won't boil?
Keep it in your peripheral but don't stare directly.
