Bonus Q for the jaded: is there a implicit, international agreement
among those plan & specify such things, that the macerator pump shall
be mysteriously concealed within an inaccesible void locatable by
occultic divination, x-ray services or systematic disassembly of the
head compartment & foreship?

Yes, as that correctly blocks access to cheap plastic thru-hulls,
batteries, rusty stainless steel hose-clamps and other various
mechanical and electrical doodads and connections, not to mention
mysterious leaks and odors. Sam
