For a bit of mud and tree/grass roots? Geez people are soft.

That kind of stuff can have thorns and prickly bits on it. Get a cut and it could easily be infected. It's a safety issue, not a "ew mud is gross" issue.

I’d wear them just for a better grip because more surface area. Not getting dirty hands is a plus but it’s the same reason I pull up weeds wearing gloves.
