I heard a technician claim that dirt attracted (or retained) moisture, so it 
should be cleaned up from where ever.

Does it? I dunno--but I wonder about those soundboards that have the layer 
of gunk stuck to the finish. Personally, I like clean pianos and my 
customers seemed to be concerned about it. Good match, I guess. :-)

Categorically, it's the same thing. Cosmetic only, without
performance value. My customers tend to not want to waste
technician rates on dusting.
