Having never used a bidet I can only surmise, perhaps incorrectly, that an issue is the duration of the drying process sans toilet paper. It makes me wonder if in general bidets are more often found where the local populace tends to have less body hair, especially in the body region being water sprayed.
The fancy Japanese bidets have air driers. However, I've found that residual wetness is very quickly not a problem. The toilet paper can be used to blot dry but very minimal is needed. I've been using them in Thailand which is always hot and sweaty. The residual turns out not to be much more than sweating.
