At that point, why even bother with all the interface hassles of having it work with a mobile manipulator? If you're already getting semi-custom equipment all over the place and designating robot exclusion zones within your house, then you probably have the cash and floorspace to go all in on special-purpose labour saving devices like a washer/dryer combo that loads directly from the chute and can run itself. But once you begin describing that, it's clear how absurd it would be to install it all for use a few times a week. Home mobile manipulation will never be a thing until it can use the existing HMIs.
