(reversed in countries where they drive on the left)
also no single wide escalators. (MTA, cut that shit out!)
There's generally higher throughout if people just stand on both sides.
Noted exceptions being if it's not a massive bolus of people trying to leave or also if the walk side is fully saturated with walkers.

Address numbers are to be placed in a prominent position, with a font that is legible from the street and illuminated at night, on every building in cities and towns.
Out in the country address numbers are to be displayed on reflective signs at the end of the driveway and again if/when a shared driveway splits.
Having addresses be easily legible for emergency services isn't inconsequential, and is legally required where I live.

Bumper height of vehicles.
Glassware must be rated to survive short drop onto wood floor at a minimum.
(The fitted sheets we have do have tags for top and bottom with hanging tag at bottom. I would say just don't give them hanging tags at all.)
