Leaving in adds another questionable variable to the situation.
Washing also softens and fluffs the material.
And, if you spit lube, it tastes awful. :barf:

I agree. But line dry instead of using the dryer, this keeps it from getting as shredded at the edges.

For me it depends on what kind of lube you're using. If it's a "wet" lube, I don't think it matters all that much.
If you're using a "grease" lube, fuggedabout unwashed. The grease sits right on top and never gets into the fabric.
I wash mine for convenience, and because I mostly use grease lubes. Good advice here on how to wash and dry.

Just be careful to wash the entire sheet. Do not cut into pieces first. Ask why I know.
