If you scratch the flame rod with sandpaper, you will change the ratio of 1:4, therefore the rectified flame signal will not be correct when it returns to the module and the furnace will lock out because it cannot prove flame. So, scratching the flame rod does make a difference, and I have no idea how scratching it would make it get dirtier faster.
Just my 2 cents.
