Clandestino, ATR toilets can also be used on the gound - 72-212 onward. Not sure about 42's - certainly not -300, but I am sure -500's you can.

The reason there's no APU is simply weight & balance. The tailcone was originally designed to hold an APU, but they found you couldn't trim it out. Hence H mode.
