Is this from years of micro scratches or just a thin layer of limescale?

Perhaps a quick squirt of toilet limescale remover gel may be a quick
solution to the lack of shine.

Micro scratches I should think but worth a try.

Pretty sure there are methods of re-enameling a steel/iron baths and
firms that specialise in doing it. Presumably an "enamel" paint or
perhaps polishing rather than reflowing the fused glass surface with
heat.
