Why do shaver sockets accommodate round pin plugs in the 115V outlet when countries with 100V to 120V mains supplies use type A plugs with flat pins? Is there a country somewhere with a 100V to 120V mains supply that just so happens to use shavers with round pin plugs?
Unfortunately it seems messier than that... Indonesia apparently use 110V as well a 220V but only uses type C (2 pin Euro) and F (Schuko), Suriname is 127V likewise only on C and F. American Samoa uses F and I (AUS/NZ) as well as A and B on their 120V system.
There is a question whether any electrical appliances, especially shavers, sold in these countries require a 115Vish supply and are factory fitted with a type C plug? In some countries appliances aren't always sold with a fitted plug; plugs are often changed by owners; or plug convertors are commonplace.
