No one needs urinals.

Case in point: No one has one in their home.

Ah but the toilet sitters do appreciate how much less urine is on the seats and around the bowl. I would have a urinal in my home if I was to remodel my bathroom. They are convenient.

You can also just sit to pee, so that there's less urine on the seats and around the bowl. No need for a urinal, which also has splash back.

If you splash urine all over the place when peeing you're sitting wrong.

That's a bad argument. How many people have hundreds, maybe thousands of people using their toilet every hour? Urinals are made for high traffic areas, where large numbers of men need to pee, and they also save water by not needing to be flushed every time.

Home bathrooms are single-occupancy, plus most people don't have the room. They're definitely beneficial for higher volume places as add much more capacity for less space, and act as an "express lane" of sorts.

There are people with urinals in their home though, although they are rare.
