If you leave them all in place they all turn into free mulch and compost anyway. And you avoid using the fossil fuels to power the mower you don't need in the first place.

I have a battery powered mower and utility has done a pretty good job of incorporating renewables into their mix

I also have some small spots where I want grass

That's probably the least efficient way to mulch that stuff, don't just leave it out like that

Ah, should we all be using the push powered ones, then, cuz those are fucking terrible. Not having grass is nice for those who don't live where it's a legal requirement, but that's out for many people, and you do have to cut it or you'll get a different law visit instead
