The Kitchen Sink is what happens when an app - or a map - tries to show everything and ends up explaining nothing. At first glance, it looks impressive. Packed. Comprehensive. Full of features, layers, and information. But spend more than a few seconds with it, and the experience quickly shifts from insight to overload. The eye jumps. The interface competes for attention. The meaning gets buried somewhere between panels, controls, and colors. The Kitchen Sink is not a failure of effort. It is a failure of prioritization.
