When does rinseless become waterless?

I have seen posts about how rinseless products are great. The ones I know end up costing a lot more to wash than a traditional product. But then I thought what if Optimum sold a waterless product called Optimum Waterless Wash..but it came in 1 gallon per wash jugs..... The rinseless products are water based but just with what I assume are more ingredients to reduce marring.

It seems that some do not consider ONR green enough for the water police or is that just marketing?
 
In my opinion, the "waterless" products do not provide enough lubrication to prevent marring/scratching.

For example, I've seen a product called DWG...ie Dri-Wash-N-Guard. I've seen many times at car shows, this product being sprayed on the vehicle, then being wiped with a microfiber leaving visible scratches behind!

Although there is no substitute for a conventional, super sudsy bucket wash, at least the rinseless washes can provide a significan amount of water and product to lube against scratching.

The spray-on "waterless" products can't help but scratch. Even the name "Dri-Wash" makes me cringe just a little!
 
The point of my thread was there are products touted as waterless which are usually applied via spray action versus products like ONR. Somehow some think rinseless, a pricey product, is greener (environment impact) than Optimum No Rinse. The only difference is one costs more per use but another may use 2 gallons of water.
