I'm betting the rolls in public facilities are being stolen on a regular basis.
I have noticed in public dunnies that often people use huge amounts and dump it in the bowl, with the effect that it blocks, or at least does not flush properly.
I have thought a solution to that problem would be to charge for using TP, not for using the dunny. It would still be free to use if one brings one’s own TP. And people would have no temptation to use damagingly too much. Women in some Far East countries I have been to seem unfazed by this method. One actually let old grannies sit at the door with a micro business selling sheets of TP. And because the old granny is there they seem not to suffer from vandalism because even vandals are too embarrassed to vandalise where there is a real person nearby.
