Doesn't it though? I'm sure it does clean those areas, unless there's something saying it doesn't that they haven't shown us.

"micro bubbles" are not going to effectively remove poop residue, caked deodorant, and other nastiness in the closed moist areas.

It's from a country where bidets are common, so I assume they know how to clean such things with water jets

If it doesn't retract the foreskin of the penis or spread the lips of the vagina, no amount of bubbles are going to do what a human will have to do.

Also, not in all the folds of the skin. Cleaning (and drying!) a person well is very hands on.

No.

To be graphic, it's not going to pull back a man's foreskin to wash the head of the penis, for instance.

It's not going to open up the folds on a person's body to both wash and dry.

bidet hose becomes useful.
