That's exactly what I've said and done for years. I now even double-flush old toilets out of habit.

The older style toilets I remember as a kid just worked. One flush would properly and fully clear out anything that didn't clog the darned thing.

The new toilets barely flush properly with two flushes, and I still wonder how much is left behind in the backwash.

I had the opposite experience. Old huge tank toilets got clogged and the new high efficiency ones don't.
