Explain the issue with This shaver socket
Andy Betteridge
Is there a country somewhere with a 100V to 120V mains supply that just so happens to use shavers with round pin plugs?

Brazil uses round pins for both voltages.
There are very few 110/120V countries. A few of them just happen to be very influential, and to imagine that everyone else must use their flat pin mains plugs
A quick search has revealed that Brazil has both 127V and 220V mains supplies and did not have a standard plug and socket until the type N was adopted as standard in 2007. A type N socket will also accommodate a type C plug with two round pins, but were any shavers ever manufactured with a type C plug that ran on 127V?
