Do we have sink overthink" ? If you want a smaller wash basin most of the time, buy a nice linear divided sink. Or simply buy a plastic dish wash basin and hide it under the sink? Ninety nine percent of these are loaded with overkill accessories, (easily considered at any Bed, Bath And Beyond ) that never get used, not to mention cleaning the ledges inside and the goo that clings to crisp edges within . Glassware, fragile type items rinsed in very hot water, will dry in ten minutes or less. Set them on the side on a mat, and stow. I wouldn't set fragile ANYTHING inside a stainless sink to dry. But that's me.
