Fuck when I read about this it always drives me mad. What kind of retarded logic is that ? I read they had to give up on some parts of the louvres because it was too filthy.
I mean where are the domestics ? Why dont they make them wash it ? It doesnt make any sense

The Louvre was massive, and lacked adequate bathroom facilities. People, especially noblemen and ladies, aren't fond of taking shits where other people will see them and notice them. So it also became the world's worst easter egg hunt, as the nobles looked for places where their shit would go unnoticed.
Best duo in all european history?

did they have something against toilets, they only needed a closet with a hole leading to a bucket that servants empty occasionally

effective and widescale sewer systems are a relatively new invention.

It was one of those scaling up problems. It's not that it lacked for toilets at all. It had exactly as many toilets as you would expect for a building of it's size.
But the palace is so large, it's like being inside a modern sports stadium. It's not just a problem of number, but of distribution, and ease and clarity of access.
It's not like there was a giant sign that said "BATHROOMS J-M THAT WAY"
