Nobody's gaming the numbers.
The Winnebago is a tandem-axle trailer. It has two 3500lb-rated axles.
The Travel Lite is a single-axle trailer. It has one 3500lb-rated axle.
Apples and oranges from a weight perspective.
There is no reason you can't do as you said. Nobody is forcing you to load 2000lbs+ of stuff into the Winnebago.
Theoretically, the Winnebago will tow more easily and be more stable on the road due to the tandem axles. The effects of most potholes for example, will be lessened by 1/2 because only one wheel will be in the pothole at any given time, while the other is on the smooth road.
