AIBU to ask for rinsing?

[Griefbacon]

Rinsing before putting stuff in the dishwasher that is. I’m raging at my man child who refuses to rinse stuff and I have just had to rewash most things from the “clean” dishwasher. His reply “I don’t see why I should have to”. Now- here’s the thing. Is rinsing needed or is my dishwasher shit?
Either way the washing up of dried on stuff sucks and asking me to wash up because the gloves don’t fit him is making me fume. Smoke coming out my ears cross.

I read an arcticle the other day that says you shouldn’t rinse. Your dishwasher senses the dirtiness of the water and sets the programme/time accordingly.

I am a lazy cow & stack stuff on the side to load later/tomorrow

Because of that I always stick it all (except glasses) to soak in soapy water before loading. I know this is wasteful of water, please don't harangue me, but my dishwasher is very happy, & I only ever have to use the 30-min wash & everything comes out sparkling, so it suits me all round

I’ll get s pic of the programmes so I can be guided, will clean filter, bought a dishwasher cleaner and will report back. I’ve kind of apologised for BU

It’s usually just on normal. I still harbour a bit of resentment that if it’s not washing but will after a quick swill that it isn’t too much to ask. I’m clearly still smarting from not being right
