I think it just might be because the seal around the glass would inevitably fail from constant thermal expansion during normal use, thus leaking all over the damn place.
Ovens don’t have a bunch of high pressure water sprayers in them. They just leak hot air at worst.
‘Just hot air’ is a bit of an understatement. Mine goes to 500°C during a cleaning cycle. It physically locks the door so you can’t open it when it does this. My dishwasher I can open at any time.
Watching food cook is appetizing and also a necessity to know when it is done. Watching the slurry of fat, food rests and soap is not.
To check the progress before electric displays and fancy indicator lights. Windows came before those upgrades when machines were still dial controlled.
But they still have windows. Plus I think old fashioned top loading ones didn’t actually.
What are you doing with your clothes? Mine are rarely covered with fat, grease or food.
They don’t want you to see the tongues licking the dishes
Here you go. It’s gross!
Dammit, I had shit to do and instead watched a half an hour video about dishwashers.
Worth.
Date idea: a nice dinner, followed by the feature-length Technology Connections Dishwasher Anthology
If this is your idea of a good date… If you’re a gay man, I’ll marry you.
The real reason is because dish washer water is freaking filthy until the last spray off.
You don’t want to see that shit and eat off it afterwards.
Dishwasher is regularly recirculating dirty, greasy water before rinsing. In order to save water, it just cycles the water with all the dirt through the dishes again, many times over. And only then rinses with a pure one.
I know how dishwasher works. I mean I don’t see why I wouldn’t want to look at that. It is interesting regardless.
