Using a little stick for agitation or rubbing some small section of cloth on a washboard isn't going to dislodge tough dirt or stains, especially on a large scale. Primitive people used rocks, and medieval people used paddles to get the job done.
@baraxor I dunno man I watched all these vids a while back and my take was that they reenact it to make some of the jobs look harder then what they actually were.
They seem to chum it up a bit. I just glanced at my old comment and seen the 30 pound paddle statement and still think that's a bit to much for cleaning linen. To me it's like using a sledge hammer to hammer in nails just because the boss gets a kick out of making people work harder then needed.
I think I have a CUNNING plan!!! ;)

@footballshortss doesn't have to be a subliminal message though. could be a leftover from the cut out advertisement break

why not just move the washing area closer to the water supply, this way they wouldn't have to lug water (not buying that part)
like why would they beat linen with big 30 pound paddles (it seems ridiculous)
How about taking a small bin down to the water supply filling it up and washing it by hand? or use a stick and stir it
My take
it was a mans world back then and maybe they got a kick out of making women work harder. LOL
