All AC's work by transferring heat from one side of the unit to the other side, as part of this process the coils on the inside of the room will be ice cold (so they can absorb the heat in the room and move it to the outside) moisture will condense on the cold coils, it will then drip down in the pan and be directed outside, that's why AC's always dribble water on the outside.
If you shut the unit off there will be a lot of moisture, all over the coils and in the pan. That moisture be food for mold in the right climates..
To avoid this, run it on the fan mode before turning it off, this will dry the unit out and avoid the mold issues

This will be 4th season, and I simply maintain clean filter and been fine. What environment are you using it in that the blower fan is becoming that dirty so much so it reduces airflow?

I can attribute to the mold issue. Mine lasted two seasons, but I didn't realize I'd have to maintain it other than cleaning the filter, etc. I just bought the newer 8k model with Matter connectivity since I believe the 12k was oversized for my bedroom (got it on sale 2 years ago at Costco). Once I get the 12k swapped out with the 8k, I'm going to try and disassemble the 12k, clean it, and move it to the garage for use.
