Hard floors don't go dull because they're dirty. They go dull because of grit.
Every step drags tiny bits of sand and dust across the floor like sandpaper. Over time that leaves thousands of little scratches, and the shine disappears. Dust mopping every day isn't busywork. It's what keeps the floor looking good between deep cleans, and it makes the finish last longer.
The boring step is the one that saves you money.
