How the frick have we not standardized how shower handles work?

For crying out loud, life’s too short to have to spend 5 minutes fiddling around with a strange shower to get the right temperature.

Blue is cold, red is hot.

-OR-

C is cold, H is hot.

Right is cold. Left is hot.

Unless your plumber or you fricked it up and switched the hoses.

Fiddling with it for 5min to get it hot is by design

Used to never see one handle controls when I was a kid. Must be cheaper than 2 handle versions to buy/install. All I can figure.

It's like the less obvious it is, the "fancier" it is. You see the same shite in cars now.

Just give me a turn knob with red and blue.

Give me a volume knob with higher and lower.

It's all so tiresome.

Not every shower handle has red and blue/hot and cold.

I’m saying at a nice hotel. Has nothing.

The range is you turn left from 7 PM to midnight to turn the shower on. Obviously the higher north you went, the hotter it got. Till it didn’t. And then didn’t turn back cold again for 10 minutes.

I mean, I can figure it out. Some of these showers are just opaque though.

My parents’ shower had 3 handles. None of which are labeled

Pretty warm but not hot if it’s cooler outside. Refreshingly slightly warm in the summer
