Who thought self-flushing toilets on boats was a good idea?

The thing about a boat is, it travels on water. The thing about water is, it moves. Whey you are walking around on a boat - even a very large BC Ferries boat - you are occasionally tipped and rolled to the side. Even when you are sitting down - you are occasionally rolled to the side.

The thing about self-flushing toilets is, they flush on their own. The thing about toilets flushing on their own is, they do it when they sense movement off the toilet.

If you put these two ideas together... you get self-flushing toilets doing their flushing whenever a big wave moves the person sitting on the toilet to the side.

Who thought this was a good idea? I remain confused on this one.
