Personally I shower after the bath with cooler water, helps to reset my temp so I’m not sweaty after and obviously to clean up also.
Alright, actually never tought about that, also since it seems irrational to first use water to sit in and then use water to clean yourself. It's more about the dirty feeling than actually sitting in dirt. Still I think I would prefer a comfy couch instead of a bath.
I mean, unless you work in a coal mine or in the sewers, you probably aren't covered in a thick layer of grime when you get in the tub. Most people are going to have a very thin layer of dried sweat and body oil, which will be a tiny, tiny percentage of the water in the tub.
"Feeling dirty" is probably something more about having trained your mind to be a certain way, and it could be retrained.
For someone with kids and pets and such, a bath might be a more reliable source of comfort and isolation.
