Is the wisdom in the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taking a ritual bath with his wife to increase affection or to conserve water?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : All right, let us start from the right.

The questioner : May Allah bless you. Is the prohibition against taking a ritual bath with the surplus water of a woman meant to pour the water, in the sense that he wants to conserve water, or is it to increase affection between the spouses?

The Shaykh : Both.
