Carpet removal only requires a utility knife, hammer and wonder bar. And a garbage can.
Replacing, agreed, I wouldn't ever consider actual ceramic or stone tile on any RV floor. However there are 100s if not 1000s of different patterns of quality snap lock floating plank flooring.
Benefits over tile. Cheaper (or quicker if diy than tile install)
Much lighter weight.
Virtually unaffected by vibration, flexing of the sub floor or temperature.
Just as waterproof and easy to clean as ceramic tile.
FAR easier to install. Only requires a tape measure, and the same utility knife.
Layout and cutting pieces is easier.
The only downsides are, you can't make it look like big square floor tile and it isn't quite as durable as tile. But it will stand up to decades of responsible use.
