Yes, if I go to the toilet I take my backpack/small bag with me, because usually I have valuable stuff in them and are easy to carry. This does not apply to a large bag (in which I don't put valuable stuff).
The standard is mine and I follow it. The same way I find absurd not to do it, you find it unreasonable to do it.
I find the expectation that things are not stolen (if unsupervised in public places) strange considering the huge amount of inequalities in wealth around even in civilized countries. I do not agree with the idea of stealing, thiefs should be punished, but expecting everybody "to behave" given the situation seems unrealistic to me.
That does not mean that I think that things are stolen 100% of the time. I have a friend that forgot a laptop on a bus (Netherlands) and the driver found it at the end of the line and gave it to lost objects so my friend got it back.

I've taken a lot of trains and sat near the bathroom often enough (unfortunately). But like I said, it applies to the cafe car too. If you find it absurd how 99% of people act on long-distance trains, I don't know what to tell you.
