Ok to skip polish or paint correction and just wash and wax?

Dear all,

This is my first time owning a proper weekend car (06 Z4MR - Imola Red). The paint is generally in very good shape, with some chips, swirls, and curb rash at the bottom of the passenger side front bumper.

Coming from the world of vintage watches, I am inclined to keep things "unpolished" and just use a good PH neutral foaming soap using a spray cannon and two buckets, and then apply wax after a good wash.

Is there any downside in just accepting the car's cosmetic condition as is, and washing/waxing regularly (once every 2 weeks perhaps) to maintain? Any long-term issues with this minimalist approach?

Thanks!
