Funny you say that. As I was using it at a hotel, I was just reflecting on how poorly designed the average kettle is, with the stationary handle on the top and a spout guard: https://stock.adobe.com/video/hot-cup-tea-kettle/189747353
Once the water is boiled, you flip the guard, and get your first scalding. Pour the water and get a nice splash of steam due to the fixed position of the handle as it rises up past your hand. And refilling the kettle is yet another opportunity to get scalded, as the handle gets in the way of your efforts to remove the lid.
