I think the morning clean is mostly about having regular inspections. Checking the tyres, so to speak. The point was made that cleaning was more important in muddy conditions, mainly to allow inspection. All the ground they walk on is soft (but with enough small gumnuts to provide hazards), so if their feet do get packed with muck there's not much opportunity to scrape it out naturally.
