Your public toilets are not private. There should never be a gap around the door. The height should be above what any reasonable person would grow to, and the lower height of the door should hide the person’s feet on the toilet unless you crouch down. It’s weird and very off putting to use one
They say it’s to prevent crime. Same as a lot of the awful things we come to expect. I’m willing to bet it doesn’t do anything noticeable with respect to crime.

I, too, commit most of my crimes from inside of a public toilet.
It’s to prevent the expectation of privacy. We’ve all been trained to accept that we are being spied on, even when we shit.
