Too many popping up on my searches lately

Also why do so few have proper fans? Do they like water damage??

It's forced air circulation. Fresh air is pumped in from the hallway usually, and small vents located near the ceilings allow the pressurized air to escape along with humidity. 

I don't know the reason for it over a normal vent, but it does allow moisture to be pulled from a room without relying on the occupant to switch something on.

1. Don't have to hope your guests actually turn the fan on to remove the humidity.

2. It's quiet, because the fan pulling the air is far away from the guestroom.

\3. It's a lot cheaper to run and maintain a few big fans than hundreds of small fans

I've had enough experiences with a foggy bathroom and high humidity crawling into the room to not be impressed by that setup

Shower with the door open and the steam sets off the fire alarm.
