When I cracked open my 2012 Mac mini to upgrade the memory last year (first time ever), there was a very thin layer of dust on some of the components (barely visible). I was expecting to see the same horror story as your laptop (it lives under the desk in my study, and the environment must be dusty!). I cleaned it out anyway, of course, but I was pleasantly surprised.
On the counter-side, I once drowned a MacBook - spilt some coffee over the screen and the fan sucked it in - the insides were pretty unpleasant after that (including visible holes in the SSD chips!).
