Know a couple of guys that hand washa nd dry with a leaf blower to avoid more contact with the finish.

Sadly you're right, you never want to use any sort of towel on your car unless it's CLEAN.
My take on it is this.
1. Do a good detail and apply sealant/wax in November
2. Use touchless wash a couples times/month during winter to remove salt as best as possible
3. Hope my sealant/wax holds up until warm enough to hand wash
4. Hand wash once I get a warm day an do a full detail
