Seems to me that if the design of household drains was sensitive to
turbulence, someone would have figured out how to fix it in the 19th
century.

More I look at it... Looks like there were a lot of shortcuts in the wall.
If they didn't make a clean-outable P trap, hmm, maybe they shortchanged
the vent.
I also notice the HVAC duct vent on the floor, suggesting somebody used the
between-studs area as a way to move heat/cool around without
I started a spreadsheet to keep track of all of these suggestions. Feel
free to edit as you see fit.

Go up on roof, make sure drain vent is not clogged by debris. Improper or
badly installed drain venting slows things down a lot.

I like the "listening" ideation offered, I *have* used the
temperature/tactility mode of holding my hand on a P-Trap to "feel" how
the water flows... vibrations convolved with "coolth"... usually
filling the sink partway and holding the p-trap in my hand while I pull
the plug and "feeling"
Great find...
A microcosm, personal study of the experience I know ideating on
high-dimensional visualization of
pressure/temperature/humidity/particulate density spaces and their
evolution by watching clouds form/disperse.

Maybe you could get a high speed x-ray camera and put some metal filings in
your washing machine.

The snake would change the flow, making the experiment meaningless. Is that
why you can’t see the value of a qbit without changing it? or something
like that in the quantum realm?

I'm sure y'all have seen this already. But it was new to me.
