There's plenty of marine grade silicone. If it's good for marine craft, seems like it should be okay for RV's.
What am I missing???

What jirbus said - difficult to remove and incompatible with other sealants. It doesn't even stick well to itself, after it's cured. Besides, it's not paintable so you need a close matching color where important.
Urethane can be painted - though, being UV-susceptible, it also HAS to be painted where exposed.
"Marine" designation should be taken with a good drain of salt, no pun intended. Besides, splashing or submersing is not the same environment as subjecting to UV, high ambient temps and vibration.
