So why would towing that blocks the view be any different than hauling cargo that blocks the view? You don't take your truck plate and put it on your trailer. Sure, a trailer has a plate, but that doesn't preclude the visibility of the truck's plate or even if there is a plate on the truck.
Whatever's convenient, right? Today you're a self-admitted "truck with cargo." Tomorrow when the DOT comes after you for your cargo, you'll suddenly be an "RV." You darn well know the world doesn't work that way. That logic didn't hold water when you were 6, and it ain't gonna fly when you're 66.
Towing rarely, if ever, completely blocks the view to the license plate from ALL convenient angles.
All a patrol officer would have to do is roll up alongside you and look in the gap between the truck and trailer to see and read the plate.
You simply can't do that with most larger TCs.
