When we breathe through our mouth, the air bypasses the natural humidification that occurs in the nasal passages. This can lead to a dry windpipe because the air is not warmed or moistened before reaching the lungs. Additionally, mouth breathing often occurs in conditions where the air is dry or cold, exacerbating the dryness sensation in the windpipe and throat. As a result, the mucous membranes can become irritated and feel uncomfortable.

And that longer joúrney means that any dust in the air has had a better chance of getting caught on the inner surface of the airways, the air will be closer to body temperature, and if the air is dry, it'll have picked up some moisture along the way as well too. Not actually required, but things that'll make life easier on the lungs.
