It does swing out of the way, it hides there tucked up under the seat (not in the bowel at all but parked above the rim) until the bombing is over. Then it literally swings into action. As for wetness, one blot with your standard tp is all that's needed, the spray is precisely focused on a small target so it doesn't wash your whole ass , just your ass hole. Occasionally, it will get hit with some shrapnel during the process, you just clean it with the rest of to bowl. As far as using it for enimatic purposes, it's awesome. If you want to you can clean your whole lower colon with this thing. I realize that's not for everybody but I've found (this may be a little gross but hey it's pr.com) there is quite a bit of fecal matter left in the lower colon after your typical elimination. A good shot of water will not only lube the pipes before the drop but clean up the dregs afterward. It just has to be healthier to get those bits and grulies out of there. If you are one who gets skids while farting, this is THE solution, no more fecal matter, no more skids. Maybe I'm gushing but I truly love mine.
