    I’m less concerned about the co-op pooping but more about the amount of latrines. Is this for a whole army to shit at once? Or is this a sanitary thing, where each individual latrine is used less therefore is more hygienic overall.

      Many people, even artisans, would not have had home plumbing, so cities often had large public latrines. At home you’d use a chamberpot, but obviously you wouldn’t want that hanging around too long, so a quick jog to the latrines would often be preferable - and your workplace almost certainly wouldn’t waste any space on toilets.
