I only do an initial sanitize when I get a new/different rv .........
The water sources I use have standards/regulations/testing so no reason to repeatedly sanitize.....
I don't use creek/river water so what's the point?
In my old TT I had to sanitize it every few weeks one year for the odor until I realized the filters where getting stinky. Once I pulled the filters to dry between trips I could go all year, or longer, without a sanitizing.
On my new TT we are going on the 3rd season and I have't sanitized since new. It gets drained between trips and I have zero issues.
I will be adding creek water to it this fall for hunting, it's clean and drinkable (very close to the source and I have been drinking it for 20 years and dad for 30). I'll probably sanitize it after that trip, but my normal use is like yours.

I let the bleach mix sit overnight - no downside, doesn't cost anything, and no additional work.
My understanding is that bleach slowly deteriorates the tank and seals, so I wouldn't leave it in there any longer than needed.
