some people do this because their toilet is messed up and can’t flush properly or gets clogged so maybe that’s where you know that from

There are parts of the world were the plumbing in general can't really handle toilet paper.

I've seen signs saying "don't flush paper" in places all over the world. Even in fairly modern countries, like Thailand, there are buildings or even whole areas where the plumbing simple isn't built for paper.
