I imagine zero people care about the manufacturing provenance of their shower-head and many other household utility items. This is just hot-button-issue glommering marketing fluff.

FWIW, such country-of-origin labels are largely misleading when it comes to most durable goods which, by design, are made up of an amalgam of parts sourced from multiple supply chains.
