BTW, there is a good reason to clean off the carbon, beyond wanting to spend too much time cleaning it. The fact is the gun is beautifully blued and I'd like to keep it that way...
The carbon won't hurt the blueing. "Hours" of cleaning with a brass brush after every shooting session on the other hand...

I also noticed the OP of the linked post calls the carbon build up on a revolver "carbon scoring".
I've seen the fouling that builds up on the front portion of a revolver cylinder called carbon scoring for many years. I don't have any simple way to prove which usage predates the other.
