My house came with door handle on my outside gate that has both handles directly connected and only turns downward and not upward.
They definitely exist and are still in use some places.

Not quite a high occupancy building imo.
Codes are different (and actually enforced) when you have one property owner and dozens if not hundreds of tenants who all can sue the owner at a whim (in the US, anyhow).
Situations vary and as satisfying as it is to appear to know it all, one doesn’t due to the large variety of how things are throughout the world.
This post gives us a precise situation and the regulations are also very specific.
It's not a hard conclusion to arrive at.
