Carpets are absolutely gross. Any smooth surface flooring is much more sanitary.

Dead skin cells, dust, pollen, etc. It’s still gross.

Vacuum sucks up all of those without issue.

On hard floors, yeah. Vacuum absolutely does not get all of that out of carpet, you still have to shampoo it regularly.

It still builds up over time deeper within the carpet where the vacuum can't suck it out. Gets between the carpet and padding. Even if you regularly vacuum. It's generally recommended to replace it every 10-15 years.
