I don't know anything about nuking them either, but as a native Floridian who has done this many a time (I was actually forced as a child by my evil parents to squeeze fresh juice every day growing up - LOL), I can vouch for the rolling of any citrus fruit to get a little more juice your way. However, I will say I don't roll them in my hand, I roll them on the counter with the palm of my hand (pretend the fruit is a rolling pin) before using them.
