A toilet door is a basic no brainer. Unless you want any others to watch or - if travelling alone - you want your bedroom area to smell the same as your freshly shat-in toilet...
But then hotel do dumb things like fully enclose a barfridge in a cupboard too.
It’s also a hygiene issue. Bathrooms are notoriously covered in fecal particles, one of the reason why flushing with the lid up is not a great idea. Having a door at least provides some protection against your bed also being covered in them.
Hotel beds are covered in far worse, a few more floating poo particles coming round the corner from the loo (after all, even if there is a door, it isn't always closed by prior guests, and they may get into bed without washing hands or worse) is the least of your worries.
Fungus still everywhere though.
I hate to say it, but lowkey airflow is not stopped by doors.
There’s a big difference between a ocasional whiff and a massive stinker.
If it smells that bad something is wrong with your diet.

Bathroom should have extractor fan. I havent smelt a shit outside of my home bathroom for this reason.
It probably is.
Door closed + extractor makes gaps have negative pressure, no way anything goes into the room.
Extractor, what I’d call a bathroom fan, fair that effectively stops airflow, I’ll go with “close enough to negative pressure for civvies that they fool themselves” (I.e. ain’t actual negative pressure like a cdc lab)
A door stops airflow? No.
