If I do go through with it I will be informing people it is a number 1 toilet only! I used to host poker games and the basement was the best spot. The only problem was no bathroom so they would go upstairs and risk waking my wife and now kids by doing so. I wanted it for that convenience basically and also for myself when I hang out down there. Definitely do not want it to be for number 2’s for the reasons you stated. If you need to do that then upstairs it is!
