Laundry detergent is bad for carpets because it suds up (similarly do not use sudsing detergent in dishwasher). The sudsing detergents work on clothes because that is what it is designed to work with.
Personally, I use liquid versions of cleansers because undissolved powders can behave like sandblasting especially in dishwasher.
