For aesthetics it usually looks better to have a smooth bottom. In most cases it will not effect the liners fit of function. Upon new installation you may notice some inconsistency in the bottom as it's hard to install without disrupting the sand. Some of this will likely flatten out as the weight of the water acts upon the sand.

Can you clean scaling and dirt stains from a plaster pool without draining?

If your pool filter is up and running, also it is best to clean the walls and floor if you have a normal to high chlorine level because this will be also your cleaning agent. Take a soft bristle brush, get in the pool and start cleaning, all the above should come off. it is better if the filter is running so you can vac out the dirt, when the dirt goes to the bottom of the pool.
