Speaking for myself: taking money away from eating properly/decently, &
recycling tobacco/butts (I used to walk down a  busy street 5 miles each way,
picking up butts, which I'd empty into a rolling paper with home-made cardboard
filter.

I saw a study that timed how long people spent in the stalls in a public
bathroom! & thought the same.

I suspect these might be private studies (the latter maybe by employers trying
to get a benchmark on what's reasonable for a bathroom break)

As for the former, I imagine it'd be cheap enough to take a survey & ask 6
friends to do so, too, then extrapolate the numbers in a way not consistent
with survey science. (cheap enough for the persion doint the study -- they'd
charge somene else full price, though, & keep the difference)
