Agreed. But, as another poster pointed out, scrapes and the like are usually bandaged. And scrapes and nose bleeds don't happen predictably every time one visits a hotel.

Agree completely. But the calculus changes when it's predictable and happens with a regular guest every time that the guest visits the hotel. Has it not occurred to you to try to identify non-porous sheets and ask the hotel to acquire them for your stays, or purchase them yourself and give them to the hotel for them to use in your room? Google is your friend here, there are lots of options.
