I did some research and it has benefits from as little a 2%, and the top performers use 35%. Not only does it chelate hard water, it effectively turns any oil on your dishes into soap.
Removing phosphates from dishwasher detergent was stupid because phosphates are measured in the discharge water from the waste treatment plants where it is regulated, and they can be dealt with chemically. All removing phosphates did was save a tiny amount of money on water treatment. Zero effect on the environment. Total greenwashing like plastic wish-cycling.
If you want zero effort spotless dishes, just mix STPP in a 1:4 ratio with cheap powdered detergent.
