And there is one of the best selling points for using a wood product or vinyl instead of carpet.

Not really. As I said I already have vinyl flooring. It is still in like new condition. Even so I prefer the carpeting. I like being able to get up in the middle of the night and not freeze my feet on a cold floor. I enjoy taking off the hiking shoes or boots at the end of the day and walking around in stocking feet.
A thorough cleaning is really easy. I just pull out the carpeting and shake it or use the old fashioned cleaning by hanging the carpet over a line and beating it. The ultimate is soapy water and a hose but I rarely do that since it will take a sunny day and a couple of hours of drying time.
