> Same goes for clothes, toilet sounds, etc.

What do you mean "same goes"? Are you saying there are cultures in which being loud on the toilet is considered proper?

No it isn't. You can slurp noodles without being rude but they do not consider 'loud mouth noises' respectful.

First link: That is a Swedish robotics blog and the sources linked are just landing pages for Chinese tours or language lessons.

Second link: Where do they say that 'making loud mouth noises is a sign of respect'? They say 'people slurp noodles' which is exactly what I said.
