The issue isn't the water from a shower backing up - it's the other direction: the shower pan is the low point in the system, so if your single waste tank gets full the only place for it to go is into your shower pan, bringing with it whatever is in that single waste tank.

I usually look before stepping into the shower (as does my wife)...maybe it's just us.

Still not seeing how it's going to jump to the fresh water system.
The concern is black water coming up into the shower while you are taking a shower.
