What happens if you don't use the "right" amount of detergent to wash your clothes? (lemmy.ml)

I am using a liquid detergent and I use exactly the half of the detergent they say I should use. If a the washing machine requires 1 cup, I do half. Mostly because I don't trust the company to put me over their interests.

Now, what will happen? Will my clothes end up staying dirty? Will it not remove stains which a full cup would have removed? Will surfexcel kidnap me and torture me for not obeying their commands? Help meeee!!

it deals with items of different materials and different kinds of dirtyness. drying is done wildly differently too, and some dishwaser detergent has stuff to help faster drying
