They do all of that as well, of course. The problem is that when it does happen (and statistically, it will, somewhere, at some point) there's a chance you don't hear the alarm (very common - just this morning there was a newspaper story about someone who were saved by the neighbours, they didn't wake up right away even with all the alarms blaring. What the alarms did though was to alert the fire department, as per their setup).
In short - if there's a fire it's much better that you're awake and up already.
It seems to me from a life-safety angle that their energy would likely be far better spent on recommending smoke alarms, CO meters, and periodic cleaning of dryer vents than on recommendations against sleeping with washing/drying machines running.
