I don't think that's a very good argument. I'm sure Bill Gates isn't regularly using composting toilets, because he has access to indoor plumbing. That doesn't mean his efforts to produce these types of toilets for the developing world are in bad faith, or shouldn't be used, it just means he has access to an even better solution that isn't feasable for everyone in the world right now. I think it is reasonable to create a product inferior to the one you use every day for people in poor countries, since poor countries often don't have the infrastructure required for the same luxuries you get in most of the western world.
