well a brush allows to remove particles that are attached without rubbing them in. If you car is REALLY dirty, even the softest cloth in the world will just rub particles into the paint.
Microfiber is great, but it won't prevent you sanding down the paint with what you collect. unless you have 600 microfiber cloth pads, one for each stroke.
IMO, a good brush, with a soak of shampoo as lubricant will detach a LOT of the "worst" on the paint before you go 'closer'. thats why I use my method of like 3 'passes': 1) remove the real shit of the car with pressure washer+foam canon, 2) remove all you can of the worst bits attached to the paint with the brush and 3) go with the soaked mits to detach the rest.
