In Oregon, and air gap is not required. They allow a “high loop” like the installation picture. Why would anyone have an open drain concealed in a cabinet? Drain backs up and you have a problem. I think the DW is the issue. Put it through a manual drain cycle with the hose in a tray at the floor and see what happens. Also doesn’t look like there’s a clamp on the hose to copper connection either.
 
the stand pipe deal is a upc ''fix'' in order to not install a air gap fitting on multi million dollar homes.
the thought is, the hose has an air gap under the sink.

usually. after inspection the air gap was removed and the hose hooked up to the disposal
For all that matters you could go into disposal and loop it at top.
