why clean clothes in hamper

I do not understand why if clothing even in a pristine condition is placed on the floor, and then taken to the hamper it would ever go into the hamper "Clean". If I Put clothing that is clean on the floor, it is now dirty. I think that the devs over-thought this needlless complication. If you change the hampers so that any clothes dropped into it, regardless of source considers it at least "used" then ALL clothing in the hamper can be cleaned since ALL clothing is always dirty once in the hamper.

What is the point of considering any clothing going into the hamper regardless of source as " clean"? it is a needless complication that is frustrating a lot of players.
