Logic of the hotel

Why is it, in hotels, that the bottle opener (fixed to the wall) is in the bathroom? Why not somewhere in the bedroom near the bar fridge? Maybe there's a real reason for this, I'm no hotel expert, but here are mine:

1. Most people drink their beer on the john: when they sit down and discover that these crazy foreigners don't use twist tops, it's mighty convenient to find that bottle opener there.

2. To discourage binge drinking: if you can't make it from the bar fridge to the bathroom to open that beer, you probably don't need it.

3. Safety of the kiddies: if the bottle opener was next to the bar fridge, every 7-year old would figure out why.

Any other suggestions?

perhaps it's just more efficient..

i kind of like the idea, particularly if there is no kitchen.. where else would you drink? on the bed? at the table? are you crazy?

thanks for the p/c btw.. we're missing you down here.. all the best
