Isn’t this backwards?

Leviticus 11:32 says, “And upon whatsoever any of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel it be, wherein any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.

11:33 And every earthen vessel, whereinto any of them falleth, whatsoever is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.”  Shouldn’t this be the other way around.  Earthenware vessels when washed should be very easy to clean because even in those times they had glazes.  Wood and fabrics would trap germs and without proper soaps could harbor potentially dangerous bacteria.
