This methond was gleaned from my days as a Porsche owner and member of the PCA. If you keep your car clean first to begin with, then a little water is all that's needed to get off almost anything that's not tar and there's tar remover for that. Soap degrades the trim. And using soap requires rinsing which wastes water and allows just that many more oppurtunites for bunging up the car with brushes and rags and such.
Of course I'm a SoCal guy, so saving water is important, and our cars don't get the heavy accumulation of mud and muck that even I use car wash soap and a hose for.
