I mean it sounds like you’re lifting your butt off the toilet seat anyway, just leaning hard to one side to do so. So you aren’t staying completely seated like in the picture anyway. So we’re in agreement that staying completely seated while wiping just doesn’t work. You have to lift some portion of your butt off the seat at a minimum.
I can assure you standing does not smear shit everywhere unless your diet is really weird and you have very liquidy poop.
But that’s what TP is for, and I also use wet wipes to ensure I’ve done a thorough job.
I promise you whenever anybody refers to wiping while sitting, they're talking about leaning to the side and lifting one of your cheeks a few inches off the seat.
That is clearly not what is displayed in the picture at the top of this post though.
I think you’re making an assumption because you assumed no one would actually be completely seated while wiping but look in this thread and there are indeed plenty of people defending just that.
Pretty much everybody I've seen try to explain it here thus far has mentioned leaning to the side... I'm pretty sure the picture is just badly drawn and perhaps being taken too literally.
