One can not be forgiven of sin without asking forgiveness. While it is true your God would know if they were contrite, or not is irrelevant. They still need to ask for forgiveness in order to get it.why do christians confess their sins? does God not know they are sorry in their hearts? double standards.
This should not be confused with superstition, I hope you can see that.
Best to you

Edit to add, why would St John The Baptist warn people to repent?
