There's a whole other 50% in the buildings that didn't.

Way more than 50%. I'd say closer to 90%. In countries like Norway they have far more COs per inmate and it generally works out better for everyone, although that's only one small reason why. That place gets it right when it comes to prison in ways inmates in N. America could only dream of.
