Default not clogged but not designed for draining a bath!

Well I got the P trap out. Had to cut it. Was able to unscrew the connection between the trap and the grey tank, but not the one directly under the tub. The strainer/basket assembly was just turning in the tub. Everything is seized up completely. So I cut the trap out.

Going to have to find a way to undo the nut at the bottom of the basket or do what I did with the kitchen sink - cut through the basket on the tub side (carefully since this is now fibreglass I'm dealing with, not the SS sink). Most likely "door #2"!

I hate plumbing!!!

Since that 3 gallons of water was so slow to drain, I am also wondering if the vent under the bathroom sink might be blocked up, causing some of that slow draining (the leak is still something that needed to be dealt with). Mud-daubers, etc? Does anyone have any info on how fast/slowly that tub should empty?
