I’ve got to air this pet peeve

Why do RV manufacturers use screws in exterior and wet places that rust! I had a Keystone 5th wheel that over 16 years I replaced about every screw with stainless steel. I was using the black tank sprayer/cleaner thing yesterday after a trip in this class A. Some water sprayed/spilled into the compartment. The outdoor shower is located there. Darned if everything in the “wet” compartment is attached with painted screws that will rust. SS screws aren’t expensive. It’s a good thing I’ve got plenty in assorted sizes as I’ll still be replacing screws.
