"checking the wheat, which refers to some sort of fungal growth as
"knobblach",
i.e. "garlics", presumably because its shape is somehow reminiscent of
garlic.
If one has to remove "knobblach" from the wheat to make matzah, then it
makes
sense that this would develop into a minhag not to eat actual knobble.

Sorry, but no, it doesn't make any sense.
