I had a roommate that did this. Except their reason for not cleaning it was that they thought all that stuff leftover was what is called seasoning. AND they wanted the cast iron seasoning to flavor their dishes.
I tried to gently explain the misconceptions, but they believed their grandma instead of me.
Which is apparently why burritos from old-school eateries taste so good: they don’t wash the griddle, and the secret sauce is the essence of the entrails of generations of pigs and chickens

They don't scrub them with soap and water, but they do scrape them clean with a razor sharp spatula after every portion is cooked.
At least it's not raw
That least touches an open flame.
This sounds like BS. I can't tell the difference between a burger cooked in my cast iron vs. an ordinary skillet. Once, there was a lingering odor of turmeric from a scramble I made, and I think some of the flavor got into food I cooked afterwards, but it didn't last.
