Can I use an unused bathtub as a litter box?
I have an extra bathroom which no one in the house uses; we put our cat's litter box in it. I love cats a lot so I was thinking, if I ended up adopting a lot of them (being able to take care of them all of course) can I use the extra bathtub, if sealed really well with a bath plug, as a litter box? I'm thinking of filling it with a lot of litter so it won't need changing for at least 2 months or so.
I won't allow guests to ever see it and I will make sure to seal it really well with a bath plug. What are the positives and negatives of having a bathtub as a litter box, if cleaned daily?

Off the top of my head –
Positives:
A bathtub is a big litter box
Negatives:
A bathtub is a big, smelly litter box
Very difficult to keep clean regularly as you cannot easily remove all the litter to clean the base
Cannot move a bathtub to clean it
Needs a lot of litter, changed regularly, which would get expensive
Risk clogging your drain with litter etc. if not very careful
Can likely never ever use the bathtub for a bath again, for example if you sell the house
The cats might start using your other baths as litter boxes, if they learn that's a nice place to go
Unpleasant surprise for any guest thinking they might want a quick shower
