I can say with certainty you have never hand washed a sink full of dishes before.

As I understand from the other comments, it's a place to put the dishes after they've been cleaned and ready for rinsing? The way I've always done it is I clean the largest vessel first, then everything goes into that vessel until it fills up, then do a round of rinsing. If I don't have a large dirty vessel, I take out a large clean mixing bowl for this purpose.

I did, in that terrible time without the dishwasher, that I would like to forget. I was taking a plate, scrubbing it with a sponge and then rinsing it with clean water from the tap.
Or do you want me to tell, y'all using a dirty sink full of dirty water to do it?

They sure are and “what do you mean rinsing with clean water?” say some folks in Europe

Not sure if we can blame the commercials
