Prewashing fabric

Another prewasher here. I prewash fabric as it comes in the house. I don't even like it my stash when it has manufacturing or agricultural residue and cooties from public handling. And I usually handle it myself it for a couple months from cutting to completion and would certainly breath in a few of those molecules or touch my eyes with residue. The insurance from bleeding colors is a bonus as well.
However, I know many quilters that I totally admire who prefer working with the manufacturing residues still present as it handles/sews more easily, and many report no bleeding in modern fabrics.
