om...
I am looking at new kitchens at the moment and have noticed that they
all have a recessed plinth.

Is this just a very common design feature? Or is it there for another
reason?
I did wonder whether it was for the ends of your feet while your
standing at the workstop but mine didn't even go under the bench!

Because if the plinth went outwards you'd have to lean forwards to reach the
sink, which would plainly be silly, and if went straight downwards it
wouldn't actually be a plinth at all? So, the only remaining option is...

Speculatively,
