Maybe it's because people understand the germ theory of disease

    They're still not the same germs. No dishwasher goes over 90 or 95°C (household ones). There is bacteria in feces that can survive that temperature. Not to mention parasite spores/eggs, some can easily withstand even 150°C.

    You are forgetting caustic bleaching chemicals.... I mean it's gross but also hygienic

    But are you going to add bleach to your dishwasher when you run the toilet brush, then do dishes normally on the next cycle?

    Seems like you're opening a whole new can of health-hazardous worms with that plan.
