Not only that, but the weight against the CCC needs to include the people in the camping unit. Most people don't consider that when buying rvs. Granted, for tts and 5ers it isn't being towed when people are in it, but people weight still stresses the axles, tires, and jack stand.

While I understand your point. The CCC is not the static load capacity.
They are different ratings

I wasn't talking about the static load capacity - I was talking about the gross vehicle weight rating. (GVWR - UVW = CCC)

The GVWR does not apply while in static condition. When the trailer is parked who cares how many people are in the trailer?
My rig can easily sleep 10 people. I'm not at all concerned with their weight or the effect of their weight while parked.
I understand there is a static load limit, but it is not the GVWR.

I don't think I can have an entire football team in the RV jumping at once.But I'm not a all concerned with an RV full of people filling every bed and seat available at the same time.
The dynamics while traveling down the road are totally different from the forces encountered while just parked.
