My DW is a fan of the silpat liner thing. Never any burnt buns, cookies or anything like that. It only weighs a ounce or so and really works perfect without any problem.
we use 2 fire bricks on the shelf to distribute the heat, works great
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in
a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up, totally worn out, loudly proclaiming---WOW WHAT A
RIDE!!!
We do not have an oven in our rig, just a convection microwave. DW tried to cook cinnamon rolls in the convection MW and they burned on the inside, not the outside. Burning cinnamon smelled up the rig for days. She was using the directions for a normal oven. She has not baked anything in the MH since.

Except some of the glazes have lead in them.
MOST glazes have lead in them.
However, no one is concerned about that in their homes, and the main problem with lead in things is when they are located in locations in which the lead can be abraded away into the air, i.e., "floor" tile is an excellent example of a surface which gets abraded routinely.
If concerned about the lead in the glaze when heating the tile, preheat the tile to a very high temperature for a while, releasing whatever will be released under heat, then you you use it at a lower temperature, not as much is left to be released.
Instead of a glazed tile, though, go to a marble and granite place and get a scrap slab of granite the size you want, have them round off the edges some (no need to polish all nice and shiny it unless you want them to).
