Surly people don't run the dishwasher every day if it isn't full though? When there were just two of us and we had a dishwasher we sometimes only ran it once a week IIRC.

Depends what is in it in my experience. If it's got an item in it of which you only have one then it's gonna get run, maybe on a lower temperature cycle.
Leaving it for a week tends to fix on whatever food was stuck to the stuff in it requiring a hotter cycle to get it off.

Most people I know end up either setting it off half-full or not using it at all. Running once a week just sounds like there'll be loads of crusted on food.
-
Even when not completely full, dishwashers are more efficient that washing up.
Obviously there's a lower limit to that statement.

This. Or a family of 4.

The big benefit is being able to run half of the dishwasher rather than the full thing. Each drawer is independent. Lots of these will be installed in flats where you probably won't have families filling the dishwasher every day.
