That was necessary because for that toilet if you were misaligned, things could go very wrong. I don't know if the newer toilets require the same training.

Just referencing common jokes some nations have about other nations, the french all surrender, the Japanese are horny for school girls, the british have bad teeth, Americans are all loud... that sort of thing.
For Germans it's that you invented scat tables (glass tables) to watch your sex partner shit on you.
This is pre-internet lore, so probably formulated from German inclinations towards rationality and self-examination, sprinkled with some WW2 stuff, and some actual stuff about porn/bondage communities.

I'm not sure why anyone would want that. But he has it.
