As technology improves, so does our standard of living.
We also went for millennia without computers and cars, yet we have no problem discussing those. Heck, the species survived without medicine for the vast majority of its existence; yet now we have it we'd never go back (and attempting to do so would be legitimately considered inhumane).
So I fail to see how discussing a sanitation issue is a first-world problem.
