    I … find it functionally superior (less water splashback) and also kinda aesthetically more pleasing than if it were centred (within the chosen parameters of colours/materials/designs … which bother me more, looks cheap).

    I also find it dirty (prob right after the work was done).
    I would rinse it a bit before posting pics.

    … actually the offset might be for accessibility reasons - so people with mobility issues (eg in wheelchairs) can get to the faucet easier. Which is always a good design option imho.

    It’s not mildly infuriating at all, it’s mildly pleasing.

      Also, easier to share a bath without one person having their head squashed to side of tap. If you put on hot water, you’re not getting the pain as it runs on to your feet. This is an innovation.

      Many baths here in the UK have it in the corner against the wall.
