For CC to be willing and able to enforce class-conscious peeing, a few conditions have to be in place:
The airline has a policy mandating it.
CC have been trained on diplomatic yet effective ways of challenging pax bahaviour.
CC know that the company will back them up in case diplomacy doesn´t work and a pap kicks up a written stink after the flight.
Another factor is USA rules regarding toilet use on flights to/from a USA destination. The Captain has to make a pre take-off speech about no group-loitering anywhere on board being allowed, and about people using the lavatory in their own area and class. The CC have to enforce this, while at the same time making sure that the elderly, the infirm and children can use the closest unoccupied lav available.
All said and done, I believe it is entirely reasonable for First and Business class pax to expect toilets for their exclusive use. For exactly the reasons mentioned by

We aim to be nice to everybody, but undeniably, some p..s are more equal than others.
