Stupid question: does a dynamo hub ‘wear’ when not connected? I have a spare front wheel but does it matter to switch?

It'll wear more than if you didn't use it, but there's no difference in the internals whether it's connected or not. Since generally the hubs can be a pain to service, I'd probably swap it out if I wasn't using it. If you keep using it, make sure to cover and protect the output terminals.
