I wouldn't sweat it (in your underwear)
I've done the DIY sink thing, hotel laundry service, hotel washing/drying machine, and packing enough (or more than enough) underwear.
All are doable and vary widely in cost, and I haven't lost my integrity or missed out on precious moments of life because of it. All methods are relatively quick and easy (sometimes cheap or expensive).
In fact, this minutae of a topic within the general topic of packing light.. I never gave a crap to any of this until I read this thread.
If anything, I could do better things in my evenings or other parts of the (depending on where I am in the world) than post on FT posting about the virtues of dry or wet underwear and packing heavy/light.
