Hi, it is on the ground floor, yes the sink is in front of the window, outside is directly the terrace.

Yes, we had that constellation (I believe: last year) already once. Back then, the original poster also had a sink in front of the window and concerns that siphon odor from a ventilation wall outlet would blow onto the grill. I think I was able to dispel those, but I didn't find it earlier.

Well, to be honest, I wouldn't have even thought about that ☺️ I didn't know it was possible to ventilate directly to the outside wall. The question is also, if you don't ventilate at all, is that a problem?

Poke only one hole instead of two in the lid of a cream cup, then you will see the difference in the uniformity of the flow. Because that's what it's about here: that the air column in the pipe does not create a "quasi vacuum effect." With the emphasis on "directly," yes. Over a short distance, this does not harm the effect of the valve if the pressure equalization (which is actually meant here by "venting") bends 90°. If you still had five meters of pipe after the bend, the desired effect would be weaker (because of the then less favorable ratio of length to cross-section – this is also the main reason for the cross-section of downpipes).
