alt Hacker NewsI've never met anyone in my life who vacuums at that rate. Not sure if your personal germophobia counts as a counterpoint.

Easy counter: people with children. We vacuum the dining area daily because of the kid.
We also have building ventilation that is sadly unfiltered, so we have more dust than normal coming in.
We don't vacuum everything daily but a robot would really help us, we just won't buy an internet connected one or something that's very pricey. Our existing vacuum is crazy efficient and quiet.
If you get a robot that automated it you'll feel the difference. Floors get a lot of dust. Especially if you have pets but even without.
I would not personally vacuum daily but having completely automated, vacuuming and mopping, every day has produced wonderful floors. Less work than what we did before too.
There's no germs involved here. Dustin on the floor is dirty socks, and you can peel crumbs and other things under foot under foot. It all goes away if floors are cleaned daily.
You don't know anyone with pets that shed a lot? Most of my shedding pet friends try to vacuum daily, and if a day is missed it is very obvious.
People that don't vacuum that frequently, I'd assume, are also the type of people that don't clean a litter box for a week instead of daily.
