That’s actually exactly what they did to fix it. They now allow you to flag sinks as bathroom or kitchen sinks, which simply controls whether or not the dish washing function can be accessed.
Its not dish washing, its “Clean +4” or something. So it sounds like you’d either have useless bathroom sinks or people washing dishes in them from time to time with the decided upon architecture.
There’s more to it then that. There’s a bunch of different “clean” activities. Washing dishes, showering, washing hands, etc. Different objects can do different things. For example you can’t wash a dish or take a bath in the shower which is a “clean” object. To wash a dish they have to have a dirty dish to do so, meaning it’s a separate activity from other things you might do with the bathroom sink.
It may be that way now. But it still sounds like at first they didnt account for much differentiation between the kitchen and the bathroom sinks if that was an issue they had for a while. Admittedly I haven’t played since Sims 2. But it was a problem when I was all into Making Magic.

Just take the dish washing activity off bathroom sinks.

Right which Is why I said they needed to differentiate them. Someone else responded to say that’s what they ended up doing in later games.
Yeah and this is just reinforcing the idea that its hard to make for me lol
