I did finish taping the cement board seams, and I'm starting the tile math to determine how to lay out my subway tile (Home Depot - $.19 per tile - woohoo!).
Remember that episode where we discovered that Ballardia is the construction equivalent of a D Cup supported by a Training Bra? And Carpenter Jim jacked up the middle of the house with his 20 ton car jack, put in some new structural members and left his index fingernail to commemorate the project?
It seems he may not have cranked quite far enough.
The East-West walls are nicely level, but the North-South wall is off over an inch over the length of the tub. Perhaps someone wanted to be able to have extra suds in the bath without sending water down the overflow drain?

Is this due to settling? The living room also slopes downhill towards the middle of the house, but it's actually supported by the Original Pony Window Wall. So maybe - just maybe - the house was not level when built.
As this is Ballard, it would not surprise me.
