I suppose the writing thing is somewhat understandable for public locations... But for a private home? It seems you could buy what you like and take responsibility for it if it shocks you.

though why haven't train stations adopted this as well?

My guess is that it`s a question of money and wear. Train station toilets get a lot of traffic, all day, and a lot of the traffic is rushed and rough.
The toilets they use are about as simple and unbreakable as it gets, but even they frequently need to be replaced. A nicer seat would be a waste, really.
It`s the same for other very high traffic toilets, like expressway rest stops. Some of those have things that remind me of prison toilets - a solid stainless steel thing that looks like it could last forever.
Other types of public toilet like department stores, convenience stores, and the like, don`t have the same levels of traffic.
