Every household now have washing machines and nobody washes clothes with their hand anymore. Can anyone explain me why I should keep this and not replace it with a wash basin ?

My mom used it to bathe the pets and to pre wash outdoor clothes that had gotten all mud covered and junk

You never hand wash clothing? There are definitely delicate items that I will always hand wash to ensure they last for as long as possible. If you think a washing machine is a modern equivalent, you’d be wrong. Manually washing something is always the best way to limit potential damage.
We live in a disposable society. When you have dirty undies, you just throw them in the garbage /s
You joke but in high school I knew this kid who’d moved down from the country and lived by himself - he really did throw out t-shirts instead of washing them.
It was not really a joke.
When my sister was a young adult, living at home, she would go down to Kmart every week and buy a new pack of 7 undies. She just really didn’t like doing her washing.
No she didn’t onsell them in Japanese Vending machines…
Never hand washed.
I do all my soccer kits by hand now. The stickers degrade too quickly in a washing machine, even on the most delicate settings. I also have a really old 100% wool jumper first bought by my great-grandfather that I hand wash to keep it going for as long as possible. I also hand wash my dog in that sink - not sure he’d like the washing machine!
To store old paint brushes, paint tins and bottles of turps under.
Also if it’s close enough to access via your outdoor entertaining. Fill it with ice to store drinks when you’ve got people over
Most fancy lingerie (or anything with lace) must be washed by hand in a sink. It just makes sense to wash clothes in the washroom as opposed to the kitchen or bathroom, especially since the plumbing is already there for the washing machine.
You could put your undies in the dishwasher.
