China is huge and fast-developing, so generalizations are dangerous. The notorious partitionless poop trough is pretty much a thing of the past (although I have no doubt some survive), but these days at eg. major train stations or tourist sites, the average public toilet is just fine.

"Parks and urban areas across the country have toilets that are well maintained..." is referring to far more than just major train stations and tourist sites.

On my last trip before COVID happened, I crossed the country and the only truly gruesome toilet I ran into was at a Tibetan monastery. YMMV.

If that was a roadtrip, that's impressive.
