    They had these in Germany, too. If you took a particularly massive shit sometimes the water pressure wasn’t enough to shove it into the hole.

            Just saying you have a process for dealing with the problem is not as good as solving the problem.

            Is there some other problem being solved by the shelf? Like do they have really terrible water pressure and need to rely on gravity and a slope?

              In my experience, the shelf helps avoid having water splash your nethers, which happens to me more often than leaving streaks, so I prefer it over having my urine splash back up at me.

      These toilets also don’t help with covering the smell of shit.
