What Im trying to get at is that its obviously not that big a hurdle, at least I dont know anyone that regularly complains about feeling nasty drinking tap water.
Its just about what people are used to, not reall, about something being unclean or not.
That’s literally how they convinced people to vote against doing it when I lived in L.A. They called it “toilet to tap.” Now L.A. is running out of water and suddenly they’re desperate to do it.
Guess what? Animals piss and shit in municipal water supplies that aren’t recycled. Constantly.
Like those wastewater treatment systems that turn sewage water into cleaner drinking water than we normally use, it still feels icky.
Still people drink tap water. How come?
where else would you get drinking water? a water shop? a spring?

To be clear personally if given the choice I’d rather the recycled piss water than tap water considering it has stricter standards.
I was just pointing out the ick factor exists whether or not it’s logical.
In some places, tap water is drinkable. For example, where I live. Sure, it doesn’t taste as good as bottled water, but it’s safe to drink.
Depending on where you live tap water has the same or not noticibly lower quality of bottled water. Just for a fraction of the price.
That was my point. The water quality isnt affected by the fact that there were tons of shit swimming in the same water a few days before.
