This seems like a considerable amount of mechanical complexity (two multi-axis arms) to replace what's currently done with a jet of water...

Yes the mechanical complexity is by no means trivial, but I wouldn't call it unreasonably difficult. Reaching for an object in 3D space is bit of a path planning headache.

"what's currently done with a jet of water..." I didn't catch this. Do you mean the current dishwashers ?
