Apparantly you did not read my statements carefully enough. There is a way to make such installs waterproof. you line the studs behind the cement backer with tarpapr or other membrane that laps over the tub lip, following same principles as in any other waterproofing endeavor. It is not hard or expensive.
Taking the attitude that it cannot be done so it shouldn't be attempted to justify using a failing thirty year old process is not beneficial. The industry has moved beyuond that. Time for you to catch up.
Excellence is its own reward!
