Finally, that doesn't work so well when there are constraints on the
order that the dishes are washed, for example when washing the
cruddiest
dishes first while there are more suds.
Alas, that still doesn't capture the notion of soapywater degenerating
into murkywater.
Only because the definition of wash hasn't been provided; obviously,
it returns a new value of water which is less soapy than the
initializer soapywater. :)
