As a guest in someone else’s house, depending on the situation, it is kind to clean up after yourself.
Dishes, for example.
But what if your host habitually routinely brazenly does not clean up after himself and does not do the dishes such that when you need to use a dish or a pan all of them are dirty and you are forced to clean them before using? What then?
Must you clean them again after? Surely it would be courteous. But respecting your host in a way they refuse to acknowledge you sounds more like a subservient relationship than one of mutual respect.
Is not “I’ll put it back where I found it” (that is: dirty in the sink) a fair rule?
