Some European homes I've been in had the toilet and bathtub in different
rooms, which was rather odd to my eyes!

Not just Europe - that was the usual arrangement in New Zealand when
I was there. I'm not sure where the idea came from, but it fitted in
with Maori tradition, which regarded the idea of washing and excreting
in the same place as utterly disgusting.
