Good idea to always hose down the lawnmower?

I understand that the grass on the lawnmower corrode the metal.
Would hosing down the mower after every use, be bad idea. Or would
the overspray water create problems in the engine?
The body of the mower I use is an old Snapper body. Solid aluminum, pretty
thick, too.
I don't bother rinsing it off, since there's nothing to rust. I scrape the
accumulated grass from below the deck every dozen or two mowings, that's
about it.
And put a new motor on it every decade or so.
They don't make 'em like they used to.
