Once you get it nice and sanded, will you apply an oil or poly?
polyeurethane would add some protection from scratches or spills.

Dont think i wana do that.
Its gone get dirty, and therefore its alive.
Especially when smoking, ashes are gone fill the cracks

Probably after a few years, the board will start to give off dirt

the planks are also a bit warped, I'm satisfied with a 5mm to 15mm gap in the middle, where the planks connect

You're going to completely ruin that piece of wood if you don't sand and clear coat it. You're also just going to be setting things on a dirty ass piece of wood?
