The problem is that they're kinda wasteful, as, in the typical RO setup, more water will go down the drain in the filtration process than ends up getting filtered.
You should have 2-3 filters before the membrane and a carbon filter after the membrane. If you don't have any filters before the membrane, you need to change the membrane much more often. Plus it's a good idea to have something to energize the water right before the faucet.

As for the wastewater... here quite a few people have systems where they use it to flush the toilet.
