Yeah, the way people handle pet feces is quite frankly very concerning. How are they ok with cat litter full of feces just lying around for hours inside their home, especially during winter?

It's a furry animal that uses it's own mouth to clean itself afterwards. It's not just in the litter box, I promise you. Meanwhile people have flush toilets that function as a water powered waste dispersion gun so their own waste gets arbitrarily distributed equally well.
But I wouldn’t compare a litter box to the toilet flush. At least the toilet ensures most of the feces (save for the particles you’re talking about) is sent away.
