they use flashy designs/colors and interesting features to make mediocre performing crap seem premo. much like what apple has been doing for the past 20 years

Rainbows involve reflection and refraction.

this faucet reminds me of an airliner

Seen something like this is public rest rooms. A wall mounted device that squirts soap into your hands when you insert them, then dispenses water for 20 seconds, then turns on a blower. All automated, all in the same unit, pretty cool really.

I could think of less expensive ways to make it look like I’ve pissed myself.

Not reflected, but REFRACTED. The light bends and make the brighter effect.

We have these at work. They are extremely fucking annoying to use and are broken 50% of the time. Oh, and they’re £1,500 each.

I wonder if it ends up filled with bacteria like the ones in public restrooms. Those leave hands dirtier than before you washed them.

It looks like an improvement over their shitty wall mounted urinals

Dyson has always been way ahead of any competitors. The first time I saw and used one of these was so impressed with it, 4 years later and I still haven't seen anything similar by another brand

Rainbows are not simple! It says that white sunlight is reflected back from inside/under the rainbow, but not above/outside the rainbow (until we get to the colour-inverted secondary rainbow).
[Edit: deleted repeated info about Alexander's Band]

It actually is brighter. The dark region beyond the rainbow is called Alexander's Band. Good explainer of the physics

White light is reflected back to the observer below the rainbow following a single lossy reflection from the back of each raindrop, so it is brighter here.
Above the secondary rainbow, white light is reflected back to the observer following a more lossy double reflection, so it is not as bright.
Between the primary and secondary rainbow, no light can be reflected back to the observer by the back of the raindrop, forming Alexander's Band.
