Is there a connection between the two? I don't see any element
of double-uncertainty added to geramah in the bit about dishwashers.
Perhaps you see a parallel I'm missing?

They're setting up a situation where a dishwasher is nothing more than
a shabbos clock. (And the noise is when no one is around to hear it.) I
would think you might need a "blech" on the switches, lest you see you
set the wrong temp or timing, and push buttons out of habit.

Tir'u baTov!
