I do think that there is a taboo on bathroom discussions in NA, but there are other concerns regarding wet wipes specifically. I do agree that they make for a much more comfortable bathroom experience, but I don't use them anymore because they can apparently cause problems with sewers and plumbing[1]. Many people I've mentioned wet wipes to in conversation cite this as the main reason they don't use them more.

    This is just a more recent article, but I've seen this in the news for a few years now and a heard few anecdotal accounts of issues from friends as well.
