Why not? If they try to enter the bathroom on their own, they must be standing around idle with no commands in their queues. They might as well make themselves useful. :P
Or, more likely, they've been forgotten and are now doing flappish, annoying things to obstruct things for other sims.
Or they've run out of things to do for a second while "macro... garden"ing. I usually don't forget sims, because they tend to do things I hate when left alone.
Lion:
Similar to the previous shower loop problem that got fixed, sims are pushed back to endless rounds of shower one after another IF they are programed to dress in towel, underwear, and swimwear after shower. If they are programed to dress in normal/casual as Maxis intends to, they are pushed out of the bathroom as usual. I used Squinge's underwearaftershower and dizzy's redress hack (separately) to program the dressing code. They both work fine by themselves in the download or with BUY also in, but no BUY paper roll placed in the bathroom. No conflict is detected between them and BUY.

This! Especially troubling on a beach lot where they start doing things like sand castles that take forever to delete from the queue.
I like having one ultra-neat sim on the lot. In my game they do tend to clean autonomously, including the terlets. Have not had autonomous bathtub pirates though. I don't set BUY to exclude visitors usually, so occasionally a visiting townie will shower. I should read the RTFM again and learn to use BUY properly.

Bathroom Uses You is designed to use the shower as a quick and efficient method of fixing hygiene and simultaneously changing them into appropriate uniform. Don't install non-Awesome crap that alters useful standard behavior and expect it to work. Besides, if you implemented a dumb thing like that, sims would stomp around in their underwear forever unless you nannied them. Stupid. And non-Awesome.

That's what I figured pretty much. I'm still experimenting with them. I have a spa in mind where customers should be in their bathrobes (which is underwear), or a beach resort/swimming pool where they are mostly in towels, or a gym where they are in sportswear. I can either use Fat D's clothes controller to strictly dress them on a per room basis, or dizzy's wood model/redress to let them change on their own.
