Less water, but lets look at the cost of electricity, as well as wasted
cabinet space. I doubt it saves water either.

Sometimes the newest method isn't the best method. No, I do not wash my
clothes in a river, but I've used an automatic washer and a wringer
washer, and the wringer wins hands-down if you want efficiency and clean
laundry.
