There's a lot of things that people do that aren't for practical reasons. That's why all our homes aren't just concrete cubes. Somebody must have decided that this looks cool and futuristic.

Strictly from practical reasons, I suppose it's marginally easier and faster to identify a free stall. Whether that is worth the extra cost is subjective.

Also, the default state for this glass is frosted. In case of a failure it all becomes frosted.

Yeah, removing greasy hand prints is probably an extra chore.

What about removing shit stains?

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hopefully, it's not a routine procedure, seeing as the shitter is in the opposite direction from the glass.

You are clearly underestimating the ability of stupidity.

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe, but you'd have to wash shitstains even off regular opaque stall walls. In fact, I can see how it would be easier to do with glass walls, as glass isn't porous, unlike the usual materials that are used for this purpose.

Yeah, but the stupid will be tempted to smear it more since it would be visible from the outside.

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 2 points 1 month ago

That's not stupid, that's malicious. Well, and stupid, but malicious first.
