I don't understand. The bidets I've seen are either an outlet under the seat which shoots a laser beam of water at the designated target or a handheld one. Why is this a separate bowl to wash one's ass in?
This is an old school setup. Before integrated washlets were a thing. Integrated washlets usually use an electric element of some kind to warm the water before use. These are plumbed in traditionally, hot inlet/cold inlet except they use 2" drain instead of the 3-4" commode waste line. So, if you wanted warm water to wash your butt you had to let it run a few minutes like a shower or sink. These were made of porcelain like a commode, way before the fancy blow molding and vacuum forming and integrated electronics we have available now.
Brutal and barbaric. Kinda like toilet paper.
