These are glorified man caves. They exist to be written and talked about.

Yes, they ostensibly have a purpose. But as comments here call out, most would never function as actual shelters.

Agree completely. All of us accumulate useless junk to various degrees in our lives. The extremely wealthy just tend to have junk that looks extremely nice, but no more useful than the Bluetooth shower speaker I got for Christmas that’s never been opened.
Yeah, they are built so you can show off. If you want to impress someone just show them your luxury bunker. "Even my bunker is fancier than your house".
