Bonding duct work.

People have been known to drop hair dryers, toasters, hand mixers etc into a sink full of water or a bath tub. This is why you can't have receptacles next to tubs, showers, swimming pools or hot tubs. If your drop a two wire appliance in the water how does the breaker trip. Only if it's on a GFCI
It won't and bonding the isolated sink will not change and will not make it safer.

Have came across several older style GFCI receptacles that did not trip either with the test button or a plug in tester. Hopefully the change maybe 10 years ago where all GFCI receptacles must have a self test function will eliminate that. Still can not understand how GFCI circuit breakers that can cost triple the price of a GFCI receptacle do not require the self testing feature. Also a two wire appliance in water hopefully will trip out a non GFCI breaker due to the short circuit water would cause.

The water would need to be extremely loaded with minerals and salts.
