Soil is kinda sentient...and it doesn't "crave" waste but definitely uses it as food to get healthier so let's do that instead of water sports nightmare toilet collection?

Yeah, crave it in a food kind of way would be fine.

The more tech we put into our toilets, the more likely they are to become sentient, so this is a serious consideration. I've often worried that the way we treat toilets might be the thing that drives AI into Skynet territory.
