    It is because you might create superheated water, which is not boiling while being above the boiling point. Since it can start boiling at any time, it can be a little dangerous to handle superheated water.

      That’s what really happened in Flint, MI. There was no contaminated water, it was only an experiment in public safety to add supplements to the water to prevent the hideous catastrophe of explosive boiling. It will soon be rolled out nationwide
