Probably is actually a "crime" for most building codes. International Residential Code for example states that "a minimum distance of 15" is required from the centerline of a toilet to any bath fixture, wall, or other obstacle"

In the UK “toilets under the stairs” are quite common, both my childhood houses had one. They’re converted from old school larders so they’re tiny, and I’m sure neither had a 15” gap before the sink.

Yeah, very common in Ireland too. Had one under the stairs in the family home when I was a kid. Though it's mainly a toilet used for that moment when the main toilet is occupied.

Stuff put in place before specific building codes are often grandfathered in, it usually applies to new construction or remodels done after whatever code was put in place.
