Being a bathroom it should be the other way round, in case of power loss it should stay opaque.
It’s oniony because no sane reasonable person would design it this way, unless they were intentionally being a terminal asshole. It looks like absurd humour.
But at least to me this doesn’t read as satirical in the least. Which has been a trend for awhile. Nottheonion has become politics2 because people are just posting anything. The comments reflect the same. I haven’t seen anyone say “Oop, you got me” in months.
I think it’s more the other way round. Politics has become the Onion, and even gone well past it, while the Onion has stayed in the same place and accidentally become a serious news source.
How is this even remotely onion-like?
The glass defaults to transparent.

I get that and appreciate the explanation.
