I have been washing cast iron pans and pots with liquid dish washing soap for nearly 50 years with nary an ill result. I don't get the "don't wash it" thing. :h
Why do you wash them? Any oil residue left from hot water just helps keep them seasoned and rust free.
There is no reason to wash a pan with soap if it's going to be heated to over 300 degrees when cooking with it! If that doesn't kill the bad things neither will soap.
