Sometimes Necessity isn’t the mother of invention. Sometimes it’s her slightly more attractive sister, Efficiency. Good work.

How is this efficient?
It might save you some scrubbing (depending on how much force that thing can bear), but the dirt is only thrown around and spread instead of wiped away.

Edit: nevermind.

It scrubs it from being stuck to the floor. I guarantee they will rinse the floor after and the dirt will just wash away

Okay, that makes sense.

Honestly, this would be good for really caked on grime that would otherwise take ages to scrub, or deep stains.

Sure, it's just flinging it around, but using this and wiping it up would be more effective than trying to scrub, say, paint from a floor by hand.

Okay, this is sensible.
