-What should people care if one guy has a scratchy ass? Remember, in Roman time there was no concept of bacteria.
-If there were so depth and small, maybe a stick will come in handy, don’t you think?

Because it’s in the interest of other people that people aren’t dragging their shit filled ass around in public, stinking up the place. The Roman concepts of cleanliness and miasma were still very much in play.

Expecting the users of a public bathroom to go elbow-deep in a toilet with a sponge on a stick to blindly poke around in the hopes that they’ll do a good job cleaning sounds much less likely to me than expecting them to wipe.
-You are overestimating the amount of shit produced in one siting XD. Also, I you get yourself dirty is YOUR shame, so more interest in keeping yourself clean.
-You don’t have to go that deep.
Also, using a stick to clean your ass is very uncomfortable, one should expect that the romans would have found a better way in all its story.
P.S. I love being able to discus how people in ancient times wiped them selves.

People who don’t wipe very often smell - especially if, as in Roman society, you would not have necessarily been taking every shit at a convenient latrine.
Also, I you get yourself dirty is YOUR shame, so more interest in keeping yourself clean.
Romans were a very communal society, and as mentioned, public cleanliness and the idea of ‘foul air’ causing illness were important ideas to the Romans.
You don’t have to go that deep.
The hole isn’t large and the latrine isn’t exactly shallow. How deep are you going to get in that before you have to put your arm in there?
