Actually Chalet, makes and advertises that camper as a dual slide and a triple slide DS116FB & TS116FB which is a more ethical approach. (Made actually as I understand their Truck camper factory roof collapsed last year and they haven't gotten it going again as of yet).
They also offer a triple slide version of the DS116RB floor plan with an optional rear wardrobe slide that isn't advertised on thier TC page. By your logic, do you consider this "unethical"?

Oh, I have inquired. Mostly here I am just complaining about what I feel is an unethical practice. The 2 Aspens, Everest, and Mammoth all require more than one slide to function.
Those along with the Chinook, Shasta and Cascade are all marketed as multi-slide campers, yet all only include one slide in both the weight and cost. Something that is unique to Host from what I can tell by visiting the websites of Lance, Arctic Fox, Chalet, and Eagle Cap for instance.
If you are dissatisfied with the requirements of more than one slide, seriously, you need to be looking at another camper. The entire point of having a big Chalet/Host/EC is for the ample space. If you desire only a single slide, buy a Lance,AF, etc...
As far as the weights go, the extra slides are OPTIONS. Camper dry weights are listed without OPTIONAL equipment. This is not some nefarious evil plan Host is using in an attempt for world domination.
