I believe that is the newest in the "Marie Antoinette" line of privacy windows.

That's why I was going to stopped drinking before lunch!

Actually if that's a bathroom, as long as the window is flashed correctly on the outside it's not a bad way to add ventilation. You can have the top of the window open a couple of inches and still have privacy.

The latch is too high for a child to reach in an emergency? (just a guess)

No, the window is installed upside-down. Right-side up if your standing on your head

Window installed upside down. Spring mechanisms removed to make it easier to move into guillotine position. Wind driven rain will keep interior of lower sash clean. I am guessing it was an attempt at achieving privacy.

The light fixtures were installed up-side-down?

Well Charles,
It looks like a typical Seattle area "master carpenter" installation to me!
