We ripped our roof on a low hanging tree branch and convinced insurance to pay for a RV FlexArmor roof. Absolutely love it. They gave us a sample of it vs the OEM roof and it really makes you wonder why they use the EPDM roofs to begin with.
$$$$$$$$$$$$ is why. How many =new= RVers would spring for that extra $2-4k if offered as a factory option? Not many, is my guess. It's only us "old salts" that have had roof issues that would likely do it and, even then, a goodly number of us might simply do a DIY coating of some sort, as soon as the warranty ran out.
FWIW, I do agree that it would be a great option...along with factory disk brakes, solar, more/larger batteries, larger tanks, etc., etc.
