Neither, but if you read modern thinking on childbirth, a lot of it's about getting gravity to help as much as possible. This is a smaller, more everyday version of the same basic problem - although to a well-fed, well-exercised body it really shouldn't be a problem at all.

Gravity is one of the weakest fundamental forces, especially when acting on small bodies.

I imagine it's a bit like using those French hole-in-the-ground loos where you squat. There's a knack to them which I never quite mastered.

The do though have the advantage of being underused at the post breakfast peak for bowel movements.
The knack of using them is easily acquired. The knack of keeping stuff in your pockets while you do is not. A few of my Euros rest in the septic tanks of various French campsites.

A new meaning for " I am going for knees up" ?

No way could I squat these days: would certainly finish up in the caca!

Needs must though Rastaman when the devil drives.
Surprising what one can cope with when under pressure and being covertly observed by, er, foreigners if you'll excuse the expression...
So far so good anyway in a tottery sort of way. Stout washable shoes are a sensible choice for backwoods bogs I find.

If you put those shoes in my washing machine AC, you'd be sleeping in the shed!

More hygene friendly than using the dishwasher?

I haven't read the detail thus far, but I hope I get the picture. When I had very major surgery some years ago I was advised and rightly so, to keep one's knees together as close as possible and to raise oneself on one's balls - of one's feet - and to sit upright and hey bingo.......success. More often than not it works, but is nowhere as satisfying as slouching, cup of Tea in one hand and some iPad or some such other distraction in the other. Know what I mean?

Without going into detail, I can only say that the squatty potty works fine. It also causes hysterical laughter from the offspring. But they don't know wot I do about asian toilets, which I have oft admired, from a distance...
