Let's settle the toilet seat controversy once and for all. It's a matter of function, and how the device was designed.

1.)When doing what requires sitting, the seat is down.

2.)When doing what requires standing, the seat is up.

3.)All other times, the seat AND LID are down, for sanitation and aesthetic purposes.

Great, now that we're done with that, let's tackle the tissue roll over/tissue roll under problem.

Solution: Which ever way it happens to end up in my hand when I put the roll on the roller.

Having small children in the house helps train the adults to do this. Unless you like getting things out of the toilet...

Well, I can weigh in on the toilet paper roll issue, anyway. In my house, the TP comes off from the bottom, not the top (i.e., the roll is mounted so that the top of the roll rotates towards the back of the roll to take paper off of the bottom).

Why? We have cats. When the roll is mounted so that the paper comes off the top towards the user, you will occasionally enter the bathroom only to find 1/2 the roll unraveled onto the floor. When the roll is mounted so that the paper comes off the bottom towards the user, one never has this problem.
