These are more public and usually filtered, most people wouldn’t wanna fill their water bottles in the sink in a bathroom, so these are perfect for like, gyms or public schools
It’s honestly fine in most places, I feel like the aversion to tap water is a taste preference / social taboo for 90% of people. Personally, the idea of filling up a water bottle in a bathroom feels gross to me, even though I’d happily use that same water to brush my teeth. I get that that’s not really logical, but that doesn’t change my gut instinct against it.

Right, sorry, I kinda assumed the US had good tap water (except that one town), so people there would fill their bottles at sinks, too
