I have a renovation of two 8x10 bathrooms on top of each other (8ft ceilings), serviced by one tank right next to lower bathroom. It's all conditioned space. I'm not 100% sure what the plumber plans, but I can't imagine a line longer than 32ft from the tank (probably the upstairs rain shower head). The four faucets are on the same wall as the heater, their supply lines could be 10 feet or less.
I'm considering units with and without internal pumps. Is there a rule of thumb for what distance the recirculation pump starts to become useful?
