+1 for flush being water carrying it away, but I thought pit would refer to
a hole in the "ground" (or floor, i.e. a place where you stand to do your
business) as opposed to a seat, but now I understand you see this as
opposed to being attached to the sewers? IMHO the most important
"front-end" experience is the distinction between standing and being seated
(when it comes to toilet typology).

cheers,
Martin
