Outstanding observation and statement!
This is an unassailable position that should put this discussion to bed ... in favor of the OP going ahead and dealing with their own black tank waste as they see fit on adequate private acreage. By the way, 1000 acres is way beyond "adequate private acreage". Most private outhouses were on far less land. ;)
There were millions of less people in the country when every house had a outhouse.
Something to think about.
I don't think the population was that much less. They certainly were not on 1000 acres.
I think you'll find the vast majority of homes had gotten rid of an outhouse as a principle means of sewage disposal by WWII, the population of the USA in 1940 was ~132 million.
Today it is nearly triple that.
