That'd be around 57 mg caffeine. On the weak side, compared to espresso or drip coffee. You think the most common preparation is instant coffee? Kind of surprising.

As you allude to, whether it's a public service or a publicly owned corporation is probably less important. Switzerland just pays four times as much per capita for railway infrastructure. And of course, it's small: a bit more than

You're saying the entire indoor volume of the "superloo" gets flooded with water, like a sinking submarine? Don't be absurd. That'd be a monumental waste of water and it wouldn't even clean that well.
