The rotating plate is a weird one. I am not really sure why they are found in most consumer microwaves. It feels like a fancy feature? Not having one is definitely the better options. easier to clean for one.
Without a rotating plate there will be a hidden metal fan-like object ether in the ceiling or the floor. this is a rotating reflector designed to scatter the waves a bit.
Don't consider this a recommendation(it may well be utter garbage) but my next microwave is going to be a Sharp R-21LCFS mainly because it hits all my key points. no rotating platter, no modes or features, just one big dial to set the timer... it's... well perfect. Plus I was able to find the service manual for it. I always feel better about a product if it has a service manual.

IIRC, the low-quality (=/= cheap) microwaves would basically just Gauss rifle your food with a high powered wave while trying to mitigate it by spinning around the tray.
