Teeth, makeup (removal), shaving, nails, and whatever else.
I guess it’s a preference. I get to have my few things arranged how I like, she hers. We wouldn’t have any use for the extra counter space either, to be honest.
I don’t really prefer one way or the other. We bought the house and it has a double sink, when I renovated it I put in an ikea one because that’s what was there. 🤷

You do all of that in 2 minutes?
I wouldn’t renovate to get rid of such, but it just seems so wasteful by whoever originally designed it unless you have like a 4000 sq ft place for like 4 people and don’t care about waste.
I dunno what to tell you, the small counter space between the two basins is clutter free, I dunno what else we’d need to put on the bathroom counter. We’re talking like max 5 linear feet of vanity, basins included. Maybe you need more space than we do, that’s cool.
The alternative is just less sq ft in the bathroom. Obviously not sometimes you’d do now. But like, paying extra every month or year for an extra 10sqft is annoying, even if you live in a low cost of living city where that’s only like $10/month extra you are paying for it, is still hardly seems like it’s worth the few seconds of inconvenience unless you make like $100/hr.
If you reduce it all down to ratios then yeah it’s probably silly. And I’m also privileged to not be renting, so there’s that too. But when you’re buying an existing house, you don’t really get to decide where the builders put the bathroom walls 30+ years ago. You just gotta decide if it’s good enough, and in our case, it was.
