You don't want to see it.
For the purposes of saving water, your dishes are repeatedly washed in dirty greasy brown water before rinsing. This does not look good, but in fact it is alright.

Not true. They are hiding the fact that there's a group of tiny gnomes forced to work the dishes. No one wants to see tiny slaves in their kitchen. They are pathetic and do not fit the rest of the kitchen ambiance.
They're just in there licking all the food off the dishes after getting drunk on the "rinsing agent".
If you forget to fill their booze, they just piss all over your dishes, that's where the spots come from.

Even worse! They're all nude!
They have big dicks though
In proportion to their bodies, yes?
No. That's why there's no window. Otherwise all women would dump their partners for a glow in the dark big dick dish washer gnome.
Edit: which happens to be the name of my future band: the Glow in the Dark Big Dick Dishwasher Gnomes

Duh. If they let you see how it's done, then you'll know how to do it yourself. And once you know how to do it yourself, you won't need to buy one of their expensive machines every time you want to wash dishes.

Knowing how "fun" it is to make a truly watertight window, even with low pressure, matching both cold and hot and detergent and whatever's flying in there, I'm glad there isn't a glass pane to view into the dishwasher.
Also, I'm usually doing things that are not reliant on seeing what's happening in a dishwasher when it is running, so the cost effectiveness would not be great there.
How is it different from a window in a washing machines, because those are quite common.
I'm not sure… as my current washing machine don't have one. It's a top-loader. I do see washing machines with a round door, though. Maybe the difference is that the whole door is the glass part, so there's no seal to make with the rest of the "door" part, but that's not satisfying.
I'd be curious to ear from an expert about this.
The technology connections guy has a video where he puts a window in one to show how it works
And it looks like sudsy vomit recirculating over your dishes. Ain't nobody wanna see that.
There's also just no point. What exactly would one hope to accomplish in having a window in their dishwasher? With a microwave, you can monitor food and make sure it's not boiling over, smoking, exploding, etc. With an oven, you can monitor goods to see if they're done or not. But a dishwasher? Unlike a cooking device, there's no harm in leaving dishes in the dishwasher too long. You don't need to pull them out at just the exact moment they're fully clean.
Unless you're one of those weirdos that cooks things in their dishwasher, I can't see any reason why you would need a window in one.

I have a countertop dishwasher that has a giant window in the front. Wanna know what's in there?
Bubble bath shower for the dishes. It looks fun.
They don’t want you to know about the dish gnomes forced to work in tight spaces under terrible conditions.
You don't replace your dish gnome cartridge every 3 years? I was told it was a feature. They get tired.

Technology connections put a window in one, it’s just nasty water swirling around and a lot of people would be grossed out by that so they hide it lol
I also don't want to be looking at the dirty dishes throughout the week as I'm waiting for the machine to be full enough to run.
It's to keep people from seeing the reality of recycled dishwater being sprayed at the plates you eat off of.

My wife only said "Don't you dare". And now i'm confused. The words imply a dare, her tone sounded like a threat

Reading though the comments I think something I said earlier today is going to be true. Technology Connections is going to be the XKCD of video explainers.
My washer and dryer have tinted windows. I have no idea why. I'm guessing their chief designer drives a heavily modded Scion though.
There are good reasons to hide what's going on inside. Some are simply not prepared: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIKJ6n-vSKt/
Table top dishwashers usually have a window. My kid considered it a major disadvantage when we got a real dishwasher that the window was missing.

I remember a while back discovering GE made a clear door that could be used for diagnostic purposes on some dishwashers they had built. Never got to try one out, just thought it was cool they made em.
Why do they call it oven when you of in the cold food of out hot eat the food?

The Sears appliance departments usually had at least one with a clear front for demonstration purposes.. But you know what happened to them
Thanks, Obama
I saw a see through dishwasher at a department store when i was a kid. a demo thingy. it was magical
Like those cows with the portal in their side that they bring around to elementary schools to show kids how chambered stomachs work! (Just now realizing this might not be a universal experience and may have had to do with my elementary school's proximity to UC Davis (Agriculturally focused college).
I'm assuming it's not a window on a real cow, or "cowborg", turning it into some sort of unholy fusion of metal, bovine, and glass.

I have a window in mine. It's great, I can see when something's not cleaning right and I fix it. Saves on redos.
