Why should hand antiseptics not be use in place of hand washing?

Handwashing is the number 1 way to eliminate germs. By effective washing we remove the germs from our hands. Effective washing meaning that you vigorously rub your hands with soap - front and back and between your fingers - for at least 1-3 minutes. Antiseptics on the other hand do not "remove" the germs, they merely kill them on the surface. Why is this different? Certain bacteria have an inner spore. Antiseptics kill the outside of the germ but leave the active spore which is actually more harmful than the bacteria itself. You can only 'remove' the germ by washing your hands.
