Is it normal for a kitchen sink to drain to the basement sump?

We are renting a home with a sump pump in the basement. Is it normal for the kitchen sink to drain into the sump pit? Seems odd as you have to totally clean your dishes before you even wash them so there are no food particle that go into the sump and clog it
Should have mentioned this home is a 1860s farm house so I think it is safe to say it was piped this way many moons ago
