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 ?

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!
I’ve never owned something so delicate that it wasn’t fine on the gentle wash cycle and low heat gentle dryer cycle. I don’t know I’d ever want to own something that annoyingly frail as far as clothing goes
