What do you think about having just a walk-in shower (with the footprint of a bathtub) with a bench in a master bath instead of having a tub, if there is a tub in the hall bath?

This is the situation in my current house, and it is one of the very few things I dislike about the house. I would much prefer a bathtub in the master bath since taking a bath in the “kids” bathroom is not as relaxing. I would be willing to have a smaller bedroom to make this possible.

Is there any way you could do both at the same time? Maybe not all in on the hall, but a refresh at the same time as the Master bath. We thought about doing our bath updates separately but it would have cost way more than combining projects.

We never use our jetted tub in the master. It’s now where we keep our laundry baskets. We actually took out the bath shower combo in the hall to make a much larger shower for our kids. They love it.

We took out the tub and have a huge walk in shower with 2 shower heads and lots of jets in our main bedroom shower. I love it! But I am not a bath person - hanging out in dirty water that doesn't stay hot doesn't excite me. And, our kids bath (jack and jill) has a tub that we used to bathe them when they were little

This is where I am going with this. The size & layout of the master bathroom make it not an especially pleasant setting to chill in a bath, but could be a very nice shower. I feel like bathtubs are mostly for bathing kids and pets. But I care about resale, so asking here.
