If it's hard to get in & out, don't lower it ...
It'd help, but not a big deal.

On petrol cars.
Diesels want cold air.

I'm very scared of doing any kind of grill block. I couldn't imagine how the vehicle would stay cool or a/c would work (if it was on)

Of course, you'd want to closely monitor engine temps when adding a grille block.
There's no need to block the whole grille right away, you can start by partially blocking it, or only blocking up the top grille (usually safe to do, all cooling, intercooler and AC is then done using the lower cooling openings)

Tire pressure is on point.

On VW's point ?
What's their pressure ?
36psi is LOW
The maximum allowed pressure is usually marked on the sidewall.
You can gradually increase pressure - at the expense of comfort - until you find it too hard for your liking, then back off a bit.
Get them off for fuel efficiency.
They'll make little difference in keeping the car clean- unless you're often travelling on unpaved roads .
