The discussion was about whether to use the dishwasher Dry cycle or
not, and simply let the water eva****ate... no one was talking dish
towels

In most US municipalities the law is that restaurants must use a hot
air dry cycle... and commercial units run hotter than home units.  If
the restaurant you frequent is serving wet dishes. glassware, and
flatware don't eat there.

It's okay to dry dishes with towels at home, hopefully with freshly
laundered towels, not the one that's been laying around your kitchen
for two days wiping up everything from greasy stove spatter to spills
on your floor, and your rugrat's runny nose.
