Well gee, that's your problem, you're only eating square food

Since most dishwashers install under counter, and even the portables
provide counter space on top, you can't count them like that.

Your property there is also *way* too expensive, by that spec I've got a
$1M+ house, and probably with the 4 acres I have, a lot more than that.
