The three sector model bends over backwards to not acknowledge marxist economics that make more sense here. You really should read marx on the theory of labor value and commodity production. There is no such thing as a raw material.
This is a good example.
For political reasons I do believe it should be measured, however for the purpose of a forum discussion it is a very complicated topic where it would be better to just exclude domestic service work given the data we have right now doesn't in any way measure domestic work outside the formal economy.
If you're interested in developing your ideas further from this good starting point I would really suggest picking up some writings of Alexandria Kollontai or reading transgender Marxism.
