Warning: Instructions May Be Stupid

I just heated up a Hot Pocket for lunch.  The name pretty much indicates that after I stick it in the microwave, I’ll have a pocket of gooey cheesy pepperoni hotness, right?  I mean, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to connect the name Hot Pocket with the notion of high temperatures, does it?

The cardboard sleeve of my Hot Pocket carries the following warning:  Caution - Product may be hot.

I don’t know whether to say duh or to scratch my head at the may.  Of course I expect my Hot Pocket to be hot.  What’s this may business all about?  Do you mean if I nuke my Hot Pocket for two minutes like it says, it won’t necessarily come out hot?  Under what circumstances?  That I have a completely defective microwave?
