    What’s so special about this simple mechanism? Even 50 year old windows can do this here.

        They are also everywhere in the ex-USSR countries. I think, China, too, has them, based on the rental properties photos that I’ve found. I also looked at rentals from India and found lots of them seem to have those weird windows with bars, but on the inside(?). Does anyone know what’s up with that?
