I legit had to stop myself a sec ago when I caught myself thinking toilet paper was made of or contained any amount of cotton.

Damn them!

Because cotton is soft.

Toolly TP for those that love the texture of tool on their most sensitive areas

I think they might've meant Tulle, the fabric, which can be extremely scratchy.

Tool fabric, its a horrible texture that nobody would want to associate with TP, whole brushed cotton is super soft.

I'm sure it would feel like that

Personally I always wondered why the obsession with thicker and thicker paper ?

Double-ply is better than single, yes, but there is a point of diminishing return where it gets so rigid it's difficult to actually wipe with it...
