This is an actual bath ... these are often offered as public services in Kibera, often with a toilet as well. amenity=toilet is not entirely correct

Sometimes shower=yes is used. This could work here, but it might not hurt to do something more official?

amenity=waste_disposal
This is an waste disposal site, without proper formal structure.
watsan:pee_point=yes

This is not a formal toilet, but a place very commonly used for peeing.

Seems informal=yes might make sense for a lot of things in Kibera.

Notes

Is there a difference between a "water point", "water tank", and "water tap"? If so, should we tag these differently? Right now the only consistent difference seems to be in name.

-- A water tank is a reservoir, usually a large above ground container; and a water tap is a spigot connected to a line. Water point, could be either.

A few nodes with watsan:other=yes mention being start/end points of terraces. Not sure what to do with these, if anything.
