IMHO these compact bathrooms are only suitable for occasional use, there are so many compromises made to get it all in a barely adequate space and they are not for me.
As to any way of modifying it to fixed sink and shower cubical, I'd say no! If you swapped the folding sink to a fixed one you wouldn't be able to use the toilet. If you wanted a full shower cubical then the toilet would have to go. As already pointed out, any modifications would likely invalidate your warranty.
As much as I hate those kinds of bathrooms and refused to consider one when I was looking to buy a caravan, I think that's as good as it gets in the space available.
Until Covid situation forced things to be different by closure/limitation of site toilet/showers, a huge number of people never used their onboard facilities at all, even those with full bathrooms with full sized separate shower cubicles! Unless you are planning on using a lot of sites without toilet/shower blocks then I think you may just have to get used to the set up. As many have found, see some of the recent posts on Covid enforced use of onboard facilities, think you may find your fears are far greater than the reality of using such a set up.
In the longer term, any modified/customised changes may impact negatively on the resale value of the vehicle.
If you use the right chemicals in the toilet tank (I found Elsan to be the best and Thetford the worst!), you won't have any smells from from the toilet itself.
I'd be very surprised indeed if there wasn't some kind of roof vent in the bathroom to avoid condensation from the shower, it may not be a big opening one but at least a small mushroom one. No window in the bathroom is not that uncommon even in full sized ones.
