3. I know that there are plenty of places which don't have public bathrooms

And I don't know, either, but I imagine it would depend on business size - or type of business. The problem would be if it's "public" for some folks and not others. I don't know if they can shut them down, but since it's a federal law, they could certainly tie them up in court.

This made me think of the movie "Hidden Figures," about the amazing contributions of (three) black women to the early space program (really good movie! ). The main character would be missing from her desk for long periods - and she had an essential job - because the only bathroom she was allowed to use was in another building. It was a nightmare in bad weather. This was 1961.
