even out of its shell it's risky.
Why is that? I do that all the time cooking eggs for my dogs. Nothing bad
has happened so far.

Yesterday, in a cafeteria, I decided to hard boil
an egg in a microwave oven (which I never tried hitherto),
a minimum size unit. I half filled a standard paper
coffee cup with water, sufficient to immerse the egg.
Timer set for 3 min.
I left for a few minutes. Upon return, a disaster of
Hurricane Sandy magnitude! Door open, cup split,
and a HOLE in the oven floor!
Que pasa, amigos? I seek an explanation, as solution
of the Maxwell eqs., modified for quantum field theory,
with boundary conditions, accounting for the field
potentials and molecular dynamics of egg chemistry.

Always perforate the egg shell with a needle before attempting to cook
it in a microwave !
Better yet - never, under any circumstances, put an in-the-shell egg
into a microwave. You can poke all the holes in it you like, it'll make
very little difference. Since the hole is going to "expose" the white,
that's pretty near a guarantee that's where it will cook first, and
thereby seal the hole. Once that happens, the steam buildup will cause a rather nice explosion - PERHAPS enough to do *SOME* of what the OP
claimed,

you've got a spheroid shell that can withstand significant pressure
albumen which has interesting properties when cooked and seems undergo violent composition when overheated
next time boil the water, then place the egg in it and leave it
outside of the microwave.
