"it's cleaner"

... is such a weird reason to me.

Washing your knob when you shower is one of life's little pleasures. Who's avoiding it to the point their beanie is getting crusty under there?

If a dude can't even give his old feller a good scrub a dub dub, where else is he neglecting?

Lack of hygiene in general is the bigger issue in this scenario that's for sure.

"easier to manage"

I'm almost scared to ask what specifically is being managed here... It's a dick, not an intern.

    Phimosis was mentioned as I recall, that and the goo under the hood.

    There are a good number of evolutionary remnants that may not be ideal or even needed (wisdom teeth, tailbone, appendix, etc) but we don't go performing preemptive surgery because of them.

    No, it still works. Because with the foreskin it's the same, there are also rare cases where there is a medical justification. My cousin had his removed as a teen, on medical grounds. We're Danish, so it wasn't some religious or cultural push.
