The one that puzzles me is why the sound of a tap running makes me want
to urinate.

take a photo in a daylight lit area with a fluorescent lamp in the
distant background.
 When you go into the area lit by the fluorescent
lamp, a piece of white paper still looks white rather than pale green.

It isn't just you. It's a well known effect. When the BBC built TV Centre
in the 1960s, there was a fountain in the centre of the ring. If that was running, people in offices overlooking it, found the same effect. In the interests of getting work done, it was turned off. It also leaked into
the
basement video tape area.

With film camera? Due to the chemistry of the emulsion, mainly, and the
lack of any colour correction. And incandescent lamps make the image look orange.

Camera or mk. 1 eyeball?
Our vision has a clever system of colour correction. As do digital
cameras.

What about red eye, what causes that?

When using print film the colour balance is entirely under the
subjective control of the tech. operating the printer. Many
professionals of the film era preferred to use slide film where
the subjective element is avoided. Slide film shots taken under
fluorescent lighting show a very strong green colour cast.
Yes when I got my first colour camera when I could still see,It made
everyone look a little yellow as the lighting was indeed of the type you mention. Even the sun is not pure white of course. Colour temperature and holes in the spectrum are tolerated well by our eyes and brain. I remember when the first CFL lamps came out many complained that the lighting, though apparently bright seemed to look grainy to them. I suspect this was due to the brain having to adjust the spectrum and of course cfls tend to have poor persistence of vision unlike tungsten which although red do still emit light as the cycles reach their peak. Some phosphors do look better, but can cause other effects like slow strobing effects.
Similarly, the conventional fluorescent tube looks pale green if you
take a photo in a daylight lit area with a fluorescent lamp in the
distant background.

Did they actually correct the balance on colour print film? I know they corrected the exposure of colour print film from the 70s onward so you
could use simple cameras with fixed aperture which previously could only
be used with b/w.
(Doesn't explain why the last film I had processed (of outdoor shots)
had a pronounced purple hue. Or why the girl in Boots didn't care.
Admittedly the film was rather out of date.)
