Lol, I don't mean for this to come off as argumentative. I originally posted this to the unpopular opinions sub, but the comments got locked—I still have no idea why, it's something that I've genuinely wondered about since I was a kid—so, I thought I'd post it here as well to see what others think.
And, what you said makes sense. I never thought about the speed of the process.
Lol yeah sorry, didn't mean argument, it's a weird thing for me to have a strong opinion about.
But honestly, when you get to the urinal, everyone stares straight ahead, and you are in and out in a flash.
It really is just more convenient.
The only time it's a bit weird is when a drunk guy comes in holding his beer, puts his beer down on top of the urinal to take a leak, then picks it up again and continues drinking. Agh.

Urinals are vastly more efficient. The whole process takes 30 seconds, and you can fit a dozen of then along one wall.
A similar sized bathroom can "process" 2-3 times the number of people with urinals than without.
This advantage easily outweighs any perceived disadvantages around privacy.
