Are there any reasons besides looks, to mow the grass growing on a mound

just grow, including what's on the mound. Any negatives to not cutting
the grass on the mound?

I cut grass over mine. Purpose is evaporation. Your system can't cover a
full 2.5 acres. Does not make sense to be that big.

No, just the system would be the dividing line from cut grass, to let grow.
It's a "standard" size mound
