Would just say that ceramic can be very slippery with fet feet,

(Possibly applies to most surfaces.)

Wood and water do not mix no matter how many precautions and coats of
sealer.

Andrew makes a very good point. You can get textured surface tiles for
such applications. I have these and the grip with bare wet feet on the
tiles is very good.

The downside is the dirt gets in the cracks and you need to use a
scrubbing brush to clean em.
