Hypothetically, if there was something wrong with tanning. Which there isn't, at all. You would likely need to build new tubs, to take advantage of the bug that doesn't exist.
As an in-between better than nothing solution that will likely endure for far too long. Can we boil a cauldron, then have bark in our inventory, craft tanning fluid that uses the water in the cauldron to fill 2 buckets that we are carrying?
So we craft 2 buckets of tanning fluid, fill a barrel from those two buckets, then craft 2 more buckets of tanning fluid. Then the cauldron requires refilling, which can be done from a barrel. Which then somewhat halves the hassle, and slightly makes up for the 4x increase in tanning fluid cost.
