eli5 Why do showers steam up bathrooms but a bath doesn’t?

Like the title says, why does a mirror fog up when taking a shower but not when you take a bath? Isn’t the water the same/higher temperature?

Showers are constantly running while baths stop. If you ran the spigot with hot water throughout the entire bath, it would also transfer heat to the rest of the room.
