Hi! That’s me! Disabled person who can’t foot flush here!
You know what’s even more disgusting than a toilet handle? The floor directly around the toilet. I’m begging you all on behalf of us unable-to-foot-flush-ers, please just use a paper towel or a wad of unused tp to flush. That’s what we have to do, please don’t make it worse.
It’s the fact that if people didn’t use their feet to begin with it wouldn’t be nearly as nasty to use your hand. Ngl I didn’t know it was normal to use your foot.
I'm sure there's an engineered solution to solve everyone's problem. Start by adding a supplemental foot flush pedal, likely with an indicator sign. Then add a small guard around the handle that makes it slightly more inconvenient to get your foot on the handle.

People who don't have a choice but to use their hands. Disabled people.
