If you had a washing machine in the same room as your dirty clothes, why wouldn’t you put them directly in the washing machine?
For me, the work the sink does is wash pots and pans and stuff, so putting them there seems logical (and then you wash them and put them in the drainer).
I am not sure why it would be full of anything; if it was full, i would wash it and empty it, and then it would be empty again. If it wasn’t full, I’d put some dirty towels at the top and run a load. Also why would I be dangerously low on towels all of a sudden? This is also how I approach dishes in the sink.
I have a feeling that the people who are very concerned about not blocking the resource (i.e., the sink) have to deal with more randomness in their routines, maybe because of sharing the resource with other housemates or family members, or having a more unpredictable schedule, and I can respect that.

I would not. I separate staging from process.
Why though, if it isn’t necessary? It just adds unnecessary work.
Flexibility. The ability to prioritize. like what if you realize you have no clean towels, but your washing machine is full of other clothes?
