One in 10k per contact is still non-neglible imo.

Everyone can do the math. With 100 contacts to contaminated surfaces the chance of infection grows to 0.01. If the chance to become infected per contact are just 1/2000 with 100 contacts the chances of getting infected are now 40%.

It makes perfect sense to maintain surface hygiene since those contacts accumulate statistically.
