My outhouse has 180° fall, it has NEVER clogged up, so that tells you too much isn't always bad!

If you tape a 1/2" block of plywood to the bottom of a 24" level, then that will get you 1/4" per foot fall on pipe. <br>Always verify that your level is accurate.

Always run at 1/4 per foot - it covers everything from toilet to kitchen drains with zero issues - and the trap to vent distance always passed every inspection I was ever part of.

Having too much fall is better than not enough.

All the plumbing code books have a table that shows how many DFUs a pipe can handle at 1/8 1/4 1/2 slope. The higher the slope the more DFUs the pipe can handle. DFUs is drainage fixture units for anyone who doesn't know.

I understood these principles already but thoroughly enjoyed the excellent demonstration and explanation.

I've heard that argument against that much fall however being a service plumber I've never seen 1/2 or more fall cause an issue.
