I don't quite follow. Isn't this exactly the point you were trying to make? That SiO2 has higher capacity because it has more cycles at a given SOC?
If not, then no replacement battery has higher capacity, just use them all to 80% SOC and safe a bunch of money.

I don't think I ever said an SiO2 could do as many deep cycles as an LFP.
If the LFP and SiO2 100AH batts are both operated to 80% of SOC range, then that is the same for AH. How often you can do that, and whether that is often enough is situational per individual RVer.
Battery types each have their own features for matching to your RVing needs. It is not a contest for saying one is better than another as such.
Which one works best in your situation is what counts.
