The 737-800 without midcabin lav was fine for its original purpose, which was medium-haul routes. But when you have so many people sharing so few lavs for over 6 hours, it gets pretty brutal.
You're right - it's 141 coach, 14 F, not 127 coach, 14 F - my oversight. So, that's 70.5 passengers per lav.
