As far as I knew, people took baths because they needed to be watered in order to grow, just like plants. It made absolutely perfect sense.
The only thing I couldn't figure out about it was why people kept on giving the excuse that people bathe to keep clean. Really, being watered seemed a whole lot more logical!
