They are too small for more than one or for anyone who needs to lean a long way forward to stand up. Plus older people need slightly higher seats, v
Children lower. Older people often need something to pull up on in order to stand. Try that with the average toilet holder!
And do the people who site toilet roll holders ever have a bad back or stiff shoulder? I sometimes suspect they are contortionists!

All public buildings, supermarkets, etc need to consider the needs of children and disabled children.
