My parents were concerned about water usage and so banned baths. I, a stubborn teenager, just started using the dangling shower head instead of the bath tap to fill the tub. Presumably they knew, but they never called me on it.
Bathing as a teenager, I wasn’t overly concerned about cleanliness or speed. I was more worried about hot water and laying down for a bit longer in the morning.
Now, as an adult, I haven’t had a bath in several years. I’ve thought about it; standing, for me, is hard because I’m obese and have an old ankle injury that was repaired incorrectly. However, ultimately, I always end up going for the shower - because, as you said, it’s more efficient - then trembling on the bed for ten minutes until my ankle recovers.
I agree, though. For effectiveness, go for a shower. For luxury, a bath might be appropriate.
This isn’t a shower thought. It’s a bath thought.

I think I would like a bathroom that is also a keep. Think of the privacy!
Two bathrooms or one giant one. Two, unless it really is a keep!
I shower in the bathtub.
I used to bathe in the shower.

I just think bathing is a waste of time. I just want want to clean myself quickly and get out, I have better things to do.
