They can be the same thing. COMPETITIVE HOUSEKEEPING YEEHAAAW!!!!
The only one I do is EXTREME IRONING!!!
DomestiCORE 6000!!
I'm only able to keep up with it during my summer break from teaching. That said, I've told people that it's a matter of energy, not time*. I get my house spotless in two hours a week, but doing just one 90 minute lecture drains me to the point that the last thing I want to do is clean.
*Note: Folding clothes can fuck off, somehow that nonsense takes an hour with minimal impact on my home.
Remember housework used to be considered a job that needed a full time adult to attend to
Now you get the appeal of minimalism. If cleaning is taking too much time, then reduce the amount of things you have to clean.
Wanting less, buying less, and spending less are the open secrets to success.
Then invest most your income, and you have a lot of time and money (relatively).
Its only staggering in the context of having to spend all of my free time and energy making money for someone else
Feel free to start a business of your own. It takes 200% of your free time and after paying employees there's often nothing left to live on.

Unironically me with anything to do with dust
It just doesn't bother me. I sanitize stuff, but I can raise a whole dust bunny farm for 6 months before I touch the vacuum cleaner
six months?!!
Hey, go argue with Joan.
As you age, the amount of effort increases. At least, it seems to.
The amount of effort it takes me not to eat everything and destroy my mid physique
Having a mid physique means all the textures were made for you and don't warp in weird ways.

Get a robo-mop, OP
If there'd be a roboter able to clean the whole bathroom, I'd buy it right away. Cleaning the floor is actually the quickest of my cleaning tasks.
The Chinese have a robot that will mop the floor with you.
Or you’ll mop the floor with its parts? Trying to get a mop the floor joke in here somehow. But those things fall down, spaz out and disassemble themselves.
Just make sure it has a proper roller mop and not one of those stupid dirty rag draggers.
Work smarter, not harder.
