When you wash boards and utensils you're not rinsing them under running water, right?
You wash them in a sink/ bowl/ dishwasher with a detergent. Even splashes of that water will therefore not contain live bacteria.
People who "wash" chicken are rinsing it under a tap.

I agree that general food safety standards do help, this being one of them.

We never washed chicken in my house.
But then we don't refrigerate eggs either.
