That was the "rule of thumb" years ago when designing a kitchen...to have the bar sit above a 4" backsplash. I'm aware, TV is now featuring all one level counter tops. Call me old fashioned but I like having the ability to hide the mess in an open kitchen which overlooks the main living areas.
Put your dirty dishes in the dishwasher and close the dishwasher door...problem solved.
