Tub area is to be included. I believe there was confusion as it wasn't always being applied correctly, so the committee just said 55 sq ft total.

However, current editions (in this case the 2016 edition) do not include this language. My question is, does the tub area need to be included in the bathroom area? Thanks for your help.
