Mitigating risks and liability is often the crucial motivating factor in these types of situations. Sometimes a safety railing or waist-high fence just isn't enough.

Most of the big international hotel chains that we all stay at when travelling no longer incorporate outdoor open-air balconies into their hotel suites when they build their new properties.

But that wasn't always the case until recently.

It seems 'jumpers' (suicide) is what they're trying to avoid, for legal reasons or reputation risks.
