Unless you don't lock it at all, you will need to unlock the deadbolt with the lever to escape. That is fiddling, right?
With some proper design, the same lever could unlock both portions.

Its an RV..
Not a S&B house..
There are many differences between the two.
Do you know that every RV dealer and who knows who else has a key that fits your top lock?
Do you know that almost every RV out there no matter how old or new has the same key for outside storage locks?
Since you have been on the forum here since 2002 and this is newer RV, I guess you have had a few others over the years?
Probably the lock worked the same on all or most of them and you just did not realize it?
I have had 5 RVs and as far as I know, most were like this.
I sense you are most upset over lack of response from lock company?You gotta go camping again and let this go.. :W
