How much formaldehyde do you like in your air?

A medium amount, just like everyone else...

Also, surely i could just use MDF without added formaldehyde. It would also we painted / sealed so would emit less gas anyway.

MDF is cheap because the otherwise waste wood particles are bonded together with cheap urea-formaldehyde reins.
Painted / 'sealed' mdf just outgasses over a longer time period.

Bathrooms = humidity
humidity + wood (particles) = swelling/rot.
