You missed his point . The machine would pump water over the lint filter

well, more _throough_ the filter, but yea. And it wasn't
just lint it trapped, but also things like small parts
of leaves, etc.

I suspect the reason this is no
longer done is because now dryers do that.

And a pretty ****poor job of it, especially if it's
larger pieces like... those leaf fragments..

thanks
