I am worried that once I transition from typing to taking notes that the keypad is going to pick up dirt etc since it will be face down against desk etc.

Overthinking this matter?
 
Remove the keyboard or put a paper towel or very thin cloth under it if you’re worried about that. You may prefer the feel of it without the keyboard underneath.
 
I ditched my keyboard cover on my 10.5 and went with a slim case. I have an old magic keyboard for when I really need it, but am finding writing on the iPad becoming second nature after a couple weeks of it.
 
Never worried about it and have had no issues at all - I take handwritten notes at least 1 hour each day and haven’t had an issue doing this for almost a year.
