You're probably still getting some steel in the weed. It is very unlikely the knife and the grinder share the exact hardness.
But I'd rather have steel than aluminum in my weed. Aluminum oxide fumes are carcinogenic when inhaled, so I'd rather avoid it.
I realize worrying about cancer when talking about smoking is ironic, but still.
Personally i just use a toothpick, but i usually clean for smooth operation as I rarely run out these days.
Ice had the experience that toothpicks break too easily to clean my grinder, especially what's in the little gap between the lid and the outside of the grinding chamber if that makes sense. But glad it works for you!
I also removed my kief tray once I started earning enough to never really run out lol
