For what it’s worth, while there certainly are public bathrooms with stalls from floor to ceiling, the most common design does have gaps between the floor and the stall (at least here in Germany). Just not as big as the gaps in the US. You’d have to get uncomfortably close to the floor of a public bathroom to see anything. And no gaps between the door and the walls.

If you’re anywhere in North America

I am not and every argument in this thread seems to assume I am and argues with some rules in the US or Canada. This was exactly my point. The situation seems to be wildly different than my experience.

1. I realised afterwards that I said nothing about executing landlords. I’m also not in favour, in case anyone was wondering.
2. Hm, I guess it comes down to what is meant by “make it easier”.
   The only way to reduce the proportion of single-family houses around here seems to be by adding rules and restrictions. Adding more rules is usually not what people mean when they say “make it easier”. But I get your point.

I don’t think you live where I live. Because where I live there is just no room to build many more houses without demolishing other houses first. There is a lot of discussion about moving away from single-family houses and increasing the density of living space. I don’t see how this would be solved by making it easier to build.

ETA: Just to be clear, I absolutely am not advocating for deporting immigrants.
