"ASME A112.18.1/CSA B125.1 standard for Plumbing Supply Fittings"
The WaterSense lavatory faucet specification sets the maximum flow rate of lavatory faucets and faucet accessories at 1.5 gallons per minute ... This specification applies to bathroom sink faucets or faucet accessories intended for private use...
Implication is that a "commercial" fixture would not necessarily be subject to this limit.
As usual, I'm mildly offended by the "one-size-fits-all" regulation which is basically irrelevant for the "off-grid country living" use case.
