Now, here comes the big question, could there be anything and i mean Anything that i could to to further compact my simslave's living space?

Sim only need one counter the stove and frig. Your kitchen could just be 2x3 and still be functioning.

My sims appear to refuse to eat in bed, and they're remarkably recalcitrant about eating standing up. Also, he can't get into the shower placed that way, can he? You'd have to swap it with the toilet.

This is unbelievably disgusting.

But so true. I had a sim go to the bathroom to sit on the toilet to eat. And there was a perfectly good dining table and two chairs.
