When it finishes running the dishes are still wet and can’t be put away yet. Someone notices this and opens it up so it can dry out. But then you need a system for knowing whether it’s clean.
does this mean you guys leave your dishwasher open all the time?
Not all the time, but often? If it’s in the way we’ll close it, but it’s often not and so we’ll leave it open to make it easier to put something in as you finish with it.

I disagree there too. I have, and my extended family has, my whole life always put dishes away from the dishwasher without a care about them being ‘too wet’, and we are none the worse for it that I can tell. They always seemed adequately dry to me.

I don’t get it, why do you need to leave it open for such a long period that people could credibly get confused?
Can’t you just dry it with towels, etc.?
It’s a lot more work to dry dishes individually by hand than it is to leave them to air dry.
It’s not though?
I’m not sure what your imagining but it’s an extra few seconds per dish, when it already takes a few seconds to take the dish out and stack it.
With 50 dishes that’s maybe an extra 150 seconds.
I don’t think I can dry them quite that fast, but also I’d much rather let them air dry than spend 3 minutes individually drying dishes
