Yeah I lurked on Reddit because most responses were either pedantic or laced with sarcasm. I feel like the assholes haven't ingratiated themselves yet.
For me I melt butter and minced garlic together in a shallow 10 inch pan until it gets fragrant and not burnt (important to watch). I sautee the fresh green beans in that, after the butter melts for a few minutes, then add 1/4 cup of water.
Get that to a low simmer and cover the top with a slight angle to the lid to let the steam out. After 10-15 minutes the outside of the beans are softened and most of the water is gone (whilst you make sure no green beans are on the bottom of the pan too long occasionally) and I add some onion and garlic powder, salt/pepper to taste, and (if wanted when most of the water is gone) a slice of butter for one last sautee with the final seasoning.
It's a bit long in writing but I've never had complaints about my "steamed" green beans.
By your logic bathrooms are discriminatory as well. Each instance can set its own rules, if you don't like the rule then block that instance. Problem solved.
I was invited to this situation once, before I even knew the word.
