Not everyone likes mixer taps.

It prevents a lot of serious or lethal accidents. It's a building regulation.

This is very rare, I've only seen it once.

>electric hot water shower (no wall sockets but an electric boiler warning up the water on a damp environment is somehow fine)

They're specially isolated so safe.

>no bidet.

That depends on where you are in Europe, they're relatively rare in the UK though I've seen plenty of places with them, not usually modern builds though.

I do not know a single one of coffee drive throughs in finland and Finland is the world's biggest consumer of coffee on a per-person basis...

You have a cup at the morning, then at work, maybe at lunch, then at the 1-3 am and then you can wait to get home to brew some more.

Latte is warm milk and coffee, you can use a saucepan. Cappuccino? Wisk your milk in the pan and it will foam. $300€ espresso machine is just stupid.

"Decide you want a cuppa? Drive home?" Have some backbone and not give in to every whim my stupid ass brain decides to want. Not gonna go out of my way to get just a cup of overpriced coffee...

But 'murican people will even get their breakfast at mcdonalds so... Whatever.

I'm sure everybody owns a coffee maker and makes coffee at home. But what if you're already out and about and decide between stops that you want a cuppa? Drive all the way home?

Coffee drive thrus like Dutch Bros and Scooters are for convenience. And because most people probably don't own the right stuff to make lattes and whatnot.

Let people enjoy things.
