If you could stand in front of your toilet with your back against the door - it`s space enough to wash (in the mind of unit bath designers, at least.)
There was a about a one inch lip from the bottom of the door to the floor, but there was no "drain" so in a couple minutes I could have filled and flooded the bathroom to the rest of the apartment.

I understand what you are saying, but standing in the six inch space between my toilet to the bathroom door to "lather up" would not have made any sense at all in the place I was living. This was a fairly new apartment in the mid-90s, but I don't know if that has anything to do with it. I had Japanese friends from out of town stay over, and no one bathed anywhere but in the tiny bathtub using the shower. I am not meaning to be contradictory, but that is my experience.
