"interesting episodes" ar?.....
The weight of the sink is not resting on the carcass but supported by the quartz top as it has been made into "one piece" with the quartz. They hacked a bit on the sink skirting to make it not so smooth, then add quartz strips at all four edges to secure the sink with the top.
Saw the pict. My impression is that the entire contraption is glued to the quartz top, probably using construction adhesive. While it is strong, all adhesives weaken over time. And granite + water makes a heavy combination.The weight of the sink is not resting on the carcass but supported by the quartz top as it has been made into "one piece" with the quartz.

I will be a bit worried if the sink is not supported in any way at all from below.
I suspect that the xtra strips are there for it to rest on the carcass at same level as the rest of the top.
If it is true that the entire sink is supported only 'from the top' by glue, I will suggest putting a wooden frame underneath for additional support.
