Dual AC a handicap when only 30amp is available?

Seems like the bigger 5th wheels and trailers all have dual ACs and I assume 50 amp. Not all campgrounds always have 50 amp spots available and not all generators can handle dual ACs. Am I right in...

In the end its not just about A/C a 50 amp rig/site has advantages over a 30 amp rig/site.
A 30 amp rig is fine and is very capable however a 50 amp rig requires no energy management or additional conservation.
Dual A/C's, multiple space heaters, hair dryers microwaves can be used without tripping the breakers.
