dry fit the bath before the tiler comes tomorrow - should I have put anything under the legs to spread the load at all?
floor is 18mm marine ply (sealed), and there’s 5 legs/points of contact

You should put 2x2 under the edge of the bath fixed to the wall and fill the gap with ct1 or similar. You should do this with the bath 'full' of water preferably.

I usually make a braced 2x2 frame for the open side, like you would do for a stud wall.

as in under the lip at the top of the bath? if so, it appears to have come prepared as there’s batons of sorts around the perimeter already :)
