My wife has dry skin. Because of it, we put in a Huge regenerating carbon filter about the size of a large home water conditioner. Plus, chlorine ruins the softener's resin beads so that makes the beads last a lot longer. See https://candjwater.com/2022/05/20/ca...in%20in%20half.

Sure, an out-of-wack public pool can be even higher. But a proper chemistry or hot tub is about the same chlorine as your local city water shower.
True, however if you have the type of cancer that will be affected by chlorine, you would definitely want to “minimize” the exposure.
