vwalan, you've said yourself that you don't stop on campsites. Those of us that do use the sewage system that's provided, which should sluice the contents of caravan toilet cassettes into a tank which is emptied periodically and dealt with correctly by specialist contractor, and should certainly not go straight into the normal sewage system. Chemicals in the sewage system could indeed cause a problem if they were in sufficient quantities, but let's remember that households pour bleach and other cleaners down the sewer every day, and the water companies don't tell us to stop. If that caused a problem, you could bet they would.
You suggest not emptying the cassette. I presume you mean "unless it's full". Unless they have access to other toilet arrangements, I'd say that two people can fill a standard cassette in two days or so. At that point, it's pretty heavy, and not everyone wants to man-handle a tank full of sh1t. Emptying daily is easier for people who struggle with heavy, cumbersome objects.
You also say you never wash out your tank. In my experience, unless you rinse the tank you'll take back half of what you arrived with.
