      The entire point of a dishwasher is that it sacrifices a little bit of electricity to save A LOT of water.

      Pre-rinsing is antithetical.

      Yeah. That’s what you’re supposed to do with modern dishwashers. Scrape off any leftovers, but rinsing is unnecessary and just wastes water.

        My dishwasher is pretty new and if I don’t rinse things off relatively thoroughly beforehand I’m guaranteed to have stuck on food bits after the dry cycle.

      The dish washing machine does it for you.

      It would be like vacuuming your house by yourself before your Roomba turns on.
