Probably because the frames on most class C and many class A motorhomes have had extensions bolted/welded to them. The concern may be that putting additional torsional load on the chassis may cause a failure.

I just tow a 6k vehicle 4-down, but before I did I checked the bolts on my hitch. It is a Thor after all.. out of the 6 bolts (they used carriage bolts) I found 2 missing and of the remaining 4 only 1 was tight. Also the frame brackets were tack welded to the frame, but one side was welded about 7/16” higher than the other. This meant that the hitch was not level to the ground when the chassis was. I fabricated an appropriate steel spacer and replaced all fasteners with quality grade-8 bolts.
