Ordinary window pane glass is quite easy to score and break cleanly;

IIUC, glass is tempered after cut to size. My guess, is cutting
tempered glass would shatter the entire piece into bits.




I had some tempered glass that would not cut at all.

I also had some safety glass (did not know it) and sure got a surprise
when the whole piece turned into little pebbles
