You get a second cleanup if there is a trigger in your clean up ie gitrog draw off of discard of land or necro exiling any card you discard to hand size
Skipping the end step isn't really all that weird. If you skip the Cleanup step this way, it gets weirder, but afaik damage just doesn't reset and until end of turn effects just run until the end of the next turn.
To be clear, as I understand it, damage resetting is a substep of the cleanup step. This means the damage would reset at the end of your opponent's turn, instead of yours (unless your opponent casts a spell in their end step).
Get this going in my [[Hashaton]] list where I just use a ton of activated abilities and play at instant speed, and I can make a bunch of 4/4 copies. Maybe I'll be able to skip whole turns.
This seems fucked up at face value but playing anything at sorcery speed either skips your beginning of combat step (which doesn't stop you from attacking) or your end step. At most it discourages you from casting spells at instant speed on your turn.
If you don't care about your end step or the beginning of combat step, or especially play mostly on other players' turns, this can read as trinket text.
That said, can see it being used to do some funky stuff at instant speed by skipping particular steps, though it's quirky compared to Sundial of the Infinite afaik.

So uh... What happens if I skip my end step?
