There was interesting information on the question of 3 or 4" pipe for toilets, but it didn't seem to be aware of the MAP testing on low flow toilets that determined clearly that 3" drain pipe is better for low flow toilets than 4" toilets because with the lower water volume, waste floated better and flowed further in a 3" pipe. This could be important for any long run before an additional water source enters the pipe. A video of that research is available here (yes with transparent drain pipe showing the action): https://joneakes.com/jons-fixit-database/1167-The-low-flush-toilet-controversy-MaP-toilet-testing and the MAP research website is here: https://www.map-testing.com/.
