You clearly have no children. The sheer quantity of laundry required would
require every surface in the house to be used for drying clothes, which is
ugly and impractical. We often do four washes in one day.

It would also require twice as much bedding (and storage for such), as you
couldn't turn it around in a day.

Ditto dishwashers. I used to think that people who owned dishwashers were
essentially too rich/gay/lazy. After all, only took me 5-10 mins max to
wash up after dinner (including the lunch and breakfast dishes lying
around). That was when I lived on my own in a tiny flat and ate frozen
pizza.

Then I got married and had a sproglet.
