Have you never seen a homeless person who deliberately smelled themselves up
to drive off the rest from a public toilet?   Don't think it's strange.
Lewisburg in Nova Scotia had a similar strategy working there hundreds of
years ago.   Ask them about the wells.

Do coin-op pay toilets still exist?  Last time I saw them might have
been in, oh,  early 60s in Penn Station or Grand Central.

So, who's missing out on selling heavily armored dispensers that will
emit sheets only if a credit/debit card is inserted or an RFID card is
in range?  Or do they exist already?   I haven't been in NYC since
1968.

Straying way off topic here, I've enjoyed ridiculing the "conceptual
art" movement.  I confess to having created a conceptual piece in an
attempt at satire, a US dime mounted under glass in a frame, with a
small cast iron fire-alarm hammer attached, entitled "New York Can
Opener".  Signed by the artist, collectors may submit their bids by
email. ;-)
