The warm water is to warm up after the dive, not before.
It works great for that!
Since you will have a long SIT, there is no effect on you cold you get on the next dive.
The other great use for a hot tub on a multi day drip is bringing your core temperature back up.
Many times on multi day trips I will sit out a dive and do it in the hot tub instead.
This restores my core temp so I am again warm for the next dive.
