Aren't there going to be likewise complex manufacturing processes behind the chemicals and machinery, including plastics, used in water treatment and piping?

It's turtles all the way down. That's the point.

Those processes could reasonably be considered essential in modern times, because we all need to have potable water available anyway. The manufacture of plastic disposable spoons could not.
