			Since shitters definitely get clogged - it is probably a better idea to use a flange that goes inside a 4" pipe, not inside a 3" pipe (those exist). Safer yet - in terms of more space - use a 4" spigot flange - meaning that:

			*Ultimate seal is a flnge that goes inside pipe. That should never leak.
			*Though I haven't seen it stated anywhere - don't fit a flange outside of smaller pipe (3") - always inside a larger pipe (4") - so even if the glue job leaks, there will be no external leak between the flange and the pipe. Any leak when flange is inside the larger pipe will still go down the drain.
