Just use powder. Put some in the compartment and a little into the basin/on the door. Now your pre-wash cycle is more effective than ever! Also, powder is cheaper most of the time. And also convenient - no individually wrapped pods!
Most people use too much detergent. Put the right amount in the wash and pre-wash, it's probably less than what they used before, and the dishes are cleaner. Too much detergent leaves powdery residue.
Dawn dishwasher soap would get hard reading your comment.
yes, double your consumption for no reason

It's what you're supposed to do though, you need soap for the prewash otherwise it does nothing.
Does nothing is a bit of an overstatement - I agree that it's working non-optimally without detergent in the prewash-cycle.
