I drive the dishwasher, bitch! Question about 'remote control' on Boschs

so preface it to say i load a dishwasher like a civilized human playing a game of tetris.

wife loads it like a drunk frat boy playing jenga. i open it after its done to either a trap where a dutch oven falls on a wine glass as i slide the tray out or surprised by 15lbs of what looks like vegetable stew sitting on the bottom.

therefore i own dishwasher management 101.

so, all these new bosches have the wifis and junk; i am familiar with 'start delay' (having used that since caveman days) and starting it immediately.

but the 'remote start' option is always highlighted.

i'm really struggling on the use case here. does anyone find themselves loading the dishwasher, putting in the tab, programming it and closing the door and then choosing not to run it??

so what, you can be out a bar later and say to your friends "watch me start my dishwashing routine!"

i'm really at a loss here.


while i'm on the subject, TWICE in the year Ive had this dishwasher i got an urgent alert on my phone telling me a CRITICAL SECURITY UPDATE HAS BEEN APPLIED. :

wut? what is a hacker going to do here? wash my dishes? run the clean cycle?
