For the Japanese, eating sushi is like eating a peanut butter sandwich: it comes so naturally, the etiquette rules - on how to eat sushi - are part of their DNA.
If I type in “Sushi Paris” the top three results all show rolls as the primary item on the plates.
More than a little selection bias is in play there. You’ve found restaurants with advertising budgets, which in many places is not representative of restaurants overall. I’d wager the bias is even stronger in big tourist cities.
In my European country you’ll order sushi as nigiri at any cornershop sushi place.
It’s most often sold as a set, where there’s typically 4 pieces of some roll with three ingredients and nori on the outside (but variations are not uncommon).
It’s quite close to what I’ve had in Japan. Although fish quality is very different.
USA maybe?
Sushi in France looks like Nagiri (not often having the black belt though :-), inverted makis are called California makis.
IDK just reporting in.

No Just saying that you are incorrect is the way to go even here now.
It is well known that Paris is perfectly representative of all of France.

I’ve gotten sets with nigiri and maki in several cities around Japan. I guess my experience and yours differ.
