Tl;dr:
Bathtubs started small due to size constraints of rooms, but got smaller because it’s cheaper to manufacture and handle smaller tubs.

That doesn’t sound complicated at all
Welcome to clickbait title school. This is your first lesson.
I heard the second lesson will shock you.
Few can make it to the third lesson.

just after World War II, Crane—a major producer of bathtubs—reported that 75 percent of their business was in 5-foot tubs, as smaller tubs are cheaper and therefore more appealing to landlords.
Ooh I can blame the landlords?
Same with hot tubs. I prefer the old fashioned wooden ones simply because they were deeper. Modern hot tubs put way too much effort into various seating arrangements, none of which gets you under much water and none of which I find comfortable
I bought a foldable bathtub some time ago and it is SO MUCH better than what I was used to
You have to kinda sit in it but it means that you can submerge your whole body without your legs constantly floating up. It fits in my shower and can be stored away when I don’t use it
I’d be afraid of doing some stupid move, like after getting a foot cramp, and somehow fall on the edge and empty it all out on the floor.
How did she get that much water into the middle of her bedroom
Out here asking the real questions
Believe me I ask this out of various experiences
How do you get it all out again??
Believe me, this will indeed be even trickier. But if she’s very careful and experienced then only about 20% will land on the floor.
I redid my bathroom in my old house and put a larger bathtub in. The issue is it requires a lot more water to fill. Great having much more leg room but it just uses so much water. I ended up using it less due to costs.
Have you tried low density water?
I may or may not have searched for this whole trying to take a bath

It makes a ton of sense to make them as small as possible, given how much water it takes to fill them up. Unlike in Japan, we hardly use that water, while they leave them filled and keep using it.
Imagine always filling a pool just because you want to refresh for 30 minutes and then dumping all that water.
Personally, when I’m taking a bath you can expect to not see me for the next 3-5 hours
Explain Japanese bath, please? They stay full of cold water?
Japanese home baths are almost always right next to a shower, and you take a shower before getting in the bathtub to soak. Because you’re clean before using the tub, a family will leave it full until everyone has had a bath. They still empty the tub after everyone has used it though-- it’s not like they keep the same water for days on end.
It’s a similar concept at bathhouses, where everyone gets in the same baths after showering.
