My neighbor's kid pointed at my new apartment's bathroom door and asked 'why is the lock on the outside?'
I had to explain that the previous owner must have installed it backwards, which means you can lock someone in the bathroom from the hallway, a design flaw I'd been blindly living with for 6 months.

Imagine the weird power trips you could have with that setup. Host a dinner party and quietly lock the chatty guest in the bathroom for a time out. It's the kind of flaw you only find when a kid points it out, then you realize you've been one wrong move away from a home made panic room this whole time.

Never thought of it that way.

lol reminds me of my old place where the bathroom door didn't lock at all. Had to get creative with a chair under the knob when guests were over.
