Titanium has a strong argument. It's less thermally conductive than steel or aluminium (so Ti is not great for pots, despite being occasionally advertised as such, but this is an advantage for plates), famously biocompatible, and highly corrosion resistant. It won't break into sharp pieces. Your standard Ti-6Al-4V alloy has a problem but there are other chemistries.
