I hate when that happens and you have to lick it all up before the dog beats you to it.
What a terrible day to have eyes.
I miss this meme
The hole is there to allow water to pass through the shower wall and accrue on the floor surface around the toilet, enhancing the sock experience of toiletgoers.
The boring answer is that its for reaching the shower controls for adjusting the temperature and pressure without the need to stand under the shower. Mostly for people with disabilites or people who needs aides.
Wouldn't this also let water out and on to the floor? Surely a sliding or hinged opening couldn't have been that hard to implement
Or even just a piece of shower curtain glued along the top of the hole.
It's also in a very terrible spot for that purpose. It would be very awkward to reach the controls from that angle and where the toilet is at.
Well obviously you are supposed to straddle the toilet and face the wall to get a better reach

I don't doubt this may be the purpose but the execution looks bad. It may be an illusion but it seems a little far away from the water controls, you'd have to go past elbow deep. The toilet is definitely in the way. You can't get to it with a wheelchair or while standing, you have to be sitting on the toilet.
I found this which confirms it's for adjusting the controls before getting in. I think this one in particular didn't have people with disabilities in mind and is a poor execution all around.
shut up prude, we all know it’s a glory hole for elephants
It just occurred to me that it's not a sliding door, so this is plausible.
temperature and pressure
mfw i realize that shower is a chemistry reactor

I thought it was to start the shower without getting the cold or hot water all over you.
It‘s for wetting your hand while on the toilet. This enables you to wipe and clean your ass with your wet hand.
The manual bidet
You jest but the manual method was all we had in 2013 Konya.
Lol why do you need the shower for that? The toilet already has water and it's right there.
Uhh…hmm
What has happened to the internet today. Why is it like this
Distance and accuracy training.
Logical
Its so you can poop in the shower and toss it in the toilet. Stomping it down clogs the drain
"Wafflestomp it down the drain" I think about that post weekly, still. I dont think im ok
Maybe poop in the shower less :)
It's so you can get a nice wet spot on the floor for that maximum bathroom aesthetic.
My first thought was to flush the toilet whenever you needed warmer water. I used to rent an apartment where I had to turn on cold water in the sink to get hot enough water in the shower.

Port hole for petting a very needy kitty with attachment anxiety.

Fuck, wait! I meant an actual cat!
Pretty straightforward. Take a nasty shit and warm up the shower while you wipe. Alternatively, warm up the shower after realizing you're out of shit tickets.
Looks like they installed it backwards, otherwise you'd be able to piss right into the toilet from the shower... because some people think it's gross to wee in the shower.
For the truly enlightened it allows you to piss into the shower while standing on the toilet.

You're a dude. It's a hole.
Put your dick in it.
It's for illicit hand holding
Its so you can pass snacks back and forth between the toilet and shower
