What psychopath architects are still designing bathrooms that you have to pull the door open in order to leave?

It’s both a hazard for emergencies as well as a hygienic nightmare. We all see the people leaving without washing their hands!

Most bathrooms have foot pulls now, it's not a perfect solution for everyone but it's better than the alternative.

What's a foot pull? I'm imagining a floor-level hook that you either use to open the door or break your ankle with

My shoes are smooth enough to make it impossible to get a grip on them. Not to mention trying to balance while pulling it. Some bathrooms have an arm pull, dobt know how hygienic it is.
