Not an unreasonable question. Answer is: I don't wanna. I like the unattendedness of an modern automatic dishwasher, I grew up in an old farmhouse having to do the dishes in a tin basin. I did not enjoy it. I run the dishwasher at night and wake up to clean dishes.
Countertop? Takes up pretty much permanent counter space plus still needs fill and drain hookups to use. I don't have the counter space for one of those currently. My friends in Singapore had one, so I am familiar with countertop versions. I remember the rolling ones also.
In "theory" the Tetra doesn't need fill and drain connections according to the video, unless I missed something. Plus it looks small enough to stow out of the way.
Again, it's probably VAPORWARE, but what if it really does work? I wanna believe (like the X-files).
I'll run this current dishwasher until it croaks. It just irks me that durable goods are much less durable now.
