Some old folks I know have not flushed a piece of TP in 40 yrs! I know it’s nasty but they have good operating septic tanks and field lines. Come from the old school. They were never actually designed for any paper at all, just whizz and poo. It breaks down in an anerobic state with no air. Then it hits the distribution box in liquid form and the field lines let it absorb into the soil. Paper will eventually fill the whole system if it too does not break down.
Having said that, I personally require 16-20 little squares per day on average. It’s not a perfect world.
