There is the risk of tick transmission of Lyme disease in tall grass. I suppose you can pretreat to prevent contraction, but mowing grass means you don't have those threats/hazards to worry about.
I still hate lawns and wish more would be native, but I wonder if there's a way to grow a native lawn such that you invite the good wildlife and keep out the bad. Would need a biologist to chime in
Dogs will happily lay in high grass.

One of the 10 plants in this article would work. And one of them is bound to be native to your area.
My dog loves tall grass so much. He likes stomping them.
