thanks, this answer deserves an award

yeah, sanitation is really important, and it's easy to understand that once you consider that our shit is literally 25% live bacteria by mass. that's more than a trillion, idk even what the name for numbers that big is. for bacteria, the quantity of bacteria you ingest plays a role (i think) in how dangerous the disease is that you catch, so if you eliminate the biggest source of bacteria, that reduces diseases a lot

It might also be important to mention that history isn't a line up. Yeah sanitation was great in Rome, but it had taken a nose dive by the time the empire fell and the Dark Ages in Europe started.
