filesystem checks not mandatory?

Why are filesystems not cleaned on boot up? I guess if the user goes on a long time without cleaning the filesystem it can get corrupt is that not true?
I was testing a live Trisquel 12 while copying a file to from a Trisquel 11 unclean filesystem and the mounted usb drive for the copy seemed to have died after hanging on copying a file. I did not realize the filesystem was that way, until I did a e2fsck force check which said several times things could be narrower.
I believe that a shutdown via the physical power button will cause something unclean.

If the drive is healthy and the filesystem is properly unmounted (what happens when you "eject" a drive or "normally" shut the system down), the filesystem should not get corrupt.

That is possible, if something is being written on it while the brutal shutdown happens.
