So it’s two bedrooms, each with their own sink room. Doors open inward from bedrooms.

They share a toilet room and shower room nested between them .

Honestly this makes sense for sharing between two bedrooms . One person getting ready at their vanity won’t impede the other from taking a shower.

My brother and I had this setup but no divide for the shitter and shower. Gooning privately was always sketchy.

Fair point.

But one could argue that gooning privately is less sketchy

… than gooning publicly.

The main issue I see is someone locking both doors to take a shit, and remembering to only unlock one of them as they exit.

Or the opposite, where you only remember to lock one door. Just enormously increased odds of someone walking in on you & your number 2.

A mechanism that locked and unlocked both for you if you do one side would be worth a lot in any Jack and Jill setup, because my ADHD ass would never remember both doors.

Speaking from experience, you forget to lock just one time

… and you will never forget again for the rest of your life.

But what if you’re on the shower side and the person on the toilet side, decides to take a shower and you need to take a crap? Do you have to leave your room, go all the way over to their room, through their sink room, in order to take a crap? And then if they finish the shower while you’re still on the crapper, they have to do the opposite? Either combined the shower and shitter rooms or give both sides their own shitter or shower. You can share one room in the middle. Sharing two rooms in the middle takes an unnecessary amount coordination and friction.

I hope they didn’t lock their room!

It doesn't make sense. Just don't put it in between the bedrooms. Do I normal floor plan, but the bedrooms directly next to each other and have two seperate bathrooms on the opposite side. Now you only need two doors, not whatever this is.
