You're also washing some of the external starch off right? I know some types of rice that we buy like the "fancier" calrose states not to wash it.
For rice, that instruction is typically because they've fortified vitamins that would be in the outside of brown rice as a powder on the white rice. Washing will remove it again.

Washing makes it technically less nutritious, but for a western diet it probably won't matter, you're not likely to get beriberi even if your rice has no thiamine
